Western Isles Child Protection Committee

Training

This section provides details of training available through the Western Isles Child Protection Committee, NCH and the Western Isles Health Board. 

We believe all adults have a responsibility to keep children safe, and through our inter-agency training, participants' level of awareness and confidence in dealing with child protection matters are increased and in doing so children and young people are better protected.

If you are interested in any aspect of the training programme or wish to book a place, please contact the relevant agency.

There will be additional future training opportunities, which will be updated on this web site.
