Our National Safeguarding Conference for 2024 will take as its theme: "Preventing Abuse"




Our National Safeguarding Conference for 2024 will take as its theme: "Preventing Abuse". It is designed to support clergy, religious, safeguarding officers and volunteers who are responsible for safeguarding in Catholic parishes, dioceses, religious congregations and lay organisations in Scotland.
The keynote speaker will be Stuart Allardyce, a director of The Lucy Faithfull Foundation and responsible for 'Stop it now!', a charity that works to prevent abuse from happening in the first place - and to prevent it from happening again if it already has.
The conference will take place in Glasgow on Saturday 16th November 2024. While participants are encouraged to participate in person to obtain the fullest benefit, it will be possible to participate online. In addition to the plenary sessions, a choice of workshops will be provided for all participants (in person and online).
Programme details and a booking form will be provided on the SCSSA website in early July: https://buff.ly/4b42Mvw
