Designated Liaison Person Workshop (3hrs)

The Designated Liaison Person is responsible for reporting allegations or suspicions of child abuse to TUSLA Child and Family Agency or Social Services (NI) and/or An Garda Siochána / PSNI.

It is recommended that this person is a senior club person. However, if there is difficulty identifying a separate individual to take this role, the Club Children’s Officer can be appointed as Designated Liaison Person once the club/organisation is clear about the responsibilities of each role.

The organisation’s child protection policy and procedures should include the name and contact details of the Designated Liaison Person and the responsibilities attached to the role.

Participants will need a tablet/laptop & a good internet connection. The ‘Zoom’ access link for the course and relevant course materials will be emailed to participants on the morning of the course in word and PDF formats. Please check your 'Spam' folder as emails containing links tend to be redirected to Spam. To gain accreditation, participants must complete the full course

There are limitations that you can only enter male or female. We apologise for any frustration this may cause. Unfortunately, at present, we cannot change this as it is coded into the system
