The discussion will look at what a trustees' legal obligations are and the Charity Commission's safeguarding expectations whilst also look at how charities can develop and implement required policies and procedures. This session will also draw on insights from the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA), and explore the lessons learnt. Safer recruitment practices, including the significance of DBS checks and eligibility, will also be highlighted. Through interactive case studies, attendees will examine real instances of abuse within the charity sector and explore preventive measures.
