This is a free webinar as part of Safeguarding Adults Week 2023.

This webinar will explore the word ‘safeguarding’ and how it can be interpreted in different ways and how this can create some confusion for professionals, when deciding what course of action to take when they have encountered a person who needs support.

‘Safeguarding’ can mean two things; a formal safeguarding response unders42 of the Care Act, or a general response to keep someone safe and to ensure their needs are met.

Presenter: Rebecca Berry, Adult Safeguarding Quality & Development Manager, Wokingham Borough Council.

This session is open to all health and social care staff and those volunteering and working for voluntary and community groups in the West Berkshire area (which includes Reading).

This is an online TEAMS session. Please book your place in advance through this link.
