PLEASE NOTE NEW TRAINING DATES (below)

In 2024 The Church of Scotland Presbytery of Forth Valley and Clydesdale is continuing to hold free online Introductory Safeguarding Training.

All who undertake regulated work (paid or voluntary) with children or vulnerable adults, and who have not completed Safeguarding Training in the last 5 years, are required to do so.

The priority for our trainers is to be on Introductory Training for all those engaged in regulated work as well as Advanced training, which safeguarding coordinators and panel members should also attend.

Please see below more Introductory and Advanced Safeguarding Training dates in October and November. It is important that if you have any new volunteers who are undertaking a PVG check, that they attend the training.

• Introductory: Saturday 5th October 10:30am, at Brightons Parish Church
• Advanced: Saturday 28th October 10:00am, at Airdrie Cairnlea Parish Church
• Introductory: Wednesday 6th November 7:00pm, Online
• Introductory: Tuesday 19th November 7:00pm, at Motherwell South Parish Church
