Risk Outside The Home

Who should attend? Staff and volunteers who have specialist child protection responsibilities and/or involvement in multiagency safeguarding assessment, planning and responses.

Why should they attend? Learning from local reviews demonstrates the need to have a collective understanding of the risks children face outside the home and to take a collaborative approach to responding to these risks. This training will help participants to effectively identify, assess and plan to safeguard children and young people from harm outside of their families.

What are the learning objectives? By the end of the course, delegates will:

• Develop knowledge about the types of risk and harm children experience outside the home, within the local Lambeth context.
• Explore contributing factors, including family context and structural inequality.
• Develop confidence in identifying, assessing and responding to risk outside the home.
• Build skills to use risk assessment tools.
• Develop knowledge and build skills to use the Disruption Toolkit and mechanisms available.
• Develop knowledge of protective factors and improve confidence to enhance these.

How is the course delivered? This free full-day course is delivered by an independent trainer with co-delivery by a representative of the Metropolitan Police Service's Central South Child Exploitation Team. Both in-person and online options are available.
