The safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults who participate in the life of the Church is a top priority for the Archdiocese.
It is for that reason our volunteers are trained in Safeguarding before they undertake any work with children and/or protected adults.
Each Diocese has specially trained individuals who provide this training. The Archdiocese of Glasgow has around 2,500 tier 1 and tier 2 volunteers, plus many others who may also require training in the future.
This is an ever-evolving situation with new volunteers coming on board, all of whom require training before beginning in their Parish role. These volunteers are essential to the life of each Parish.
We are therefore looking to expand our cohort of trainers and hope for volunteers to join our training team to help run courses throughout the year.
Training and support are provided to all volunteer trainers. There are a range of courses delivered and they are done both in person and using Zoom. We urgently require the assistance of volunteers who have training experience either in their current or previous roles.
