Safeguarding

Safeguarding & Managing Risk (Edinburgh)

The Safeguarding and Managing Risk modules of Youth Leader Training (YLT) are being offered as standalone modules.

The Safeguarding module builds on the e-learning module that you have already completed. Ultimately this module is all about ensuring that The Boys’ Brigade is a safe space for all. It is not just about keeping children and young people safe but being a youth organisation and a charity there are a number of rules, regulations and requirements that we have to adhere to. We also work in partnership with local Churches across different denominations and as part of this you may be required to follow their policies, procedures and training as well as our own.

The Managing Risk module aims to enable participants to create a safe environment for children and young people and ensure that activities are organised and delivered safely.

Participants must have completed the OBM e-learning modules before attending these sessions.

The courses are being organised by Edinburgh, Leith & District Battalion. The closing date for both courses is 14th December 2025. For further information and to book places please contact Pamela McKay on pamela.mckay@thebb-edinburgh.org.uk
