Gloucestershire Safeguarding Adults Board Roadshow 2021

This year's roadshow will inevitably be a bit different to usual, but this gives us the opportunity to bring the roadshow directly to your office, home, garden shed or anywhere with internet access!

The Gloucestershire Safeguarding Board and VCS Alliance are working together to provide a week of morning events from 12-16 April via MS Teams, shining a light on safeguarding during the COVID pandemic. We will have a particular focus on the Voluntary and Community Sector’s contribution to keeping people safe during this challenging time. Each day will be focusing on a specific theme, the details of the sessions are below with booking separate for each day - this will allow you to pick and choose the sessions most suitable to you.

Anyone is welcome and we hope that by providing the sessions in this format we will enable more people to attend than ever before.
