Get to grips with the essentials of safeguarding adults and children. Whether you are new to safeguarding or looking to refresh your knowledge, this course will give you the tools you need to recognise, respond and report safeguarding concerns.
Community Sponsorship groups have a responsibility to safeguard the families they welcome into their communities. This training will ensure that you and your group is equipped to recognize and respond effectively to signs of harm or abuse. As refugee families often come from vulnerable backgrounds and may have experienced trauma, exploitation, or neglect, it is important that groups understand how to provide the support and protection these families need to settle and thrive.

Sponsoring a refugee family is a significant responsibility. We advocate for Community Sponsors to ensure that they are properly supported throughout their journey.
Our advocacy focuses on representing the views of Community Sponsors to the Home Office to support them in implementing the necessary operational changes.
We also represent the views of Community Sponsors to other key stakeholders, including Local Authorities, international organisations, the wider resettlement field, housing providers and financial institutions. We also use our voice to campaign on policies affecting refugees. We are members of the Together With Refugees coalition, campaigning for a more humane approach to people seeking protection in the UK.
