The signs of grooming can be hard to spot. But it’s important to know what to look out for to keep children safe in education and care settings.
Join Kate McGill, Education Manager at Bravehearts at our August webinar to unpack exactly what grooming is, how it can look and what to do next if you notice something concerning.
- Recognise signs that a child may be experiencing grooming
- Identify common ‘red flag’ grooming behaviours in adults
- Respond without hesitation if a child discloses or you have a concern
- Understand your reporting obligations and take the next step with confidence.
