CHILD PROTECTION COMMITTEE LAUNCHES NEW GUIDANCE
North Ayrshire Child Protection Committee held a formal launch at Harbour Arts Centre, Irvine. A number of key practice documents offering staff essential guidance were presented to delegates across the agencies working with Vulnerable Children.
These new guidance documents are available to print or view on our website within the Professionals Page. These are welcome additions to our current guidance and protocols. To support this short training sessions will be available on Thursday 2nd April 2009 and Wednesday 6th May 2009. Further information on our training page.
NEW CHAIRPERSON FOR CHILD PROTECTION COMMITTEE
I am delighted to take up this post and would like to welcome you to the North Ayrshire Child Protection Committee website. Children and Young People are at the heart of all the work we do in North Ayrshire. This website is a valuable resource for children, young people, families, professionals and members of the public alike. We hope that you take time to visit some of the pages and download some or all of our essential information. I would also like to introduce you to our new additional website for younger children. Why not have a look at
SELF LEARNING PACK - AN INTRODUCTION TO CHILD PROTECTION
We have now introduced a self learning pack for staff / volunteers in all statutory and voluntary organisations that work with children and young people in North Ayrshire. This pack aims to offer staff volunteers a FIRST STEP to understanding child protection processes and includes a Certificate. This pack can be printed off by visiting the Training page within this site.
