safeTALK (half day training face-to-face) - Republic of Ireland
2022-09-14 09:30 - 13:00 | Church of Ireland House, Church Avenue, Rathmines, Dublin 6, D06 CF67, Church of Ireland House, Church Avenue, Rathmines, Dublin 6, D06 CF67, Ireland
safeTALK is an internationally recognised ‘suicide intervention’ programme. This is a half-day workshop delivered face to face that trains individuals within the community to recognise persons that may be experiencing thoughts of suicide and to connect them to intervention resources.
safeTALK can offer an initial stepping stone towards becoming suicide aware and beginning your suicide intervention journey. As a result, safeTALK can be offered to all participants regardless of prior experience or training. By practicing the TALK steps delivered in safeTALK you become a suicide alert helper, offering potentially life-saving assistance to a person experiencing thoughts of suicide.
Why safeTALK?
People experiencing thoughts of suicide may be unaware of the support resources available to them, or they may be reluctant to approach these services due to the stigma that often surrounds suicide. A safeTALK-trained alert helper can facilitate this need – they make early recognition and connection to life-saving interventions and support possible, on a far greater scale that communities can afford to do alone. This means that the more safeTALK-trained alert helpers there are, suicide intervention caregivers will be used more often, and more lives will be saved.

FREE Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) awareness & info sessions for Sports, Faith & Community Sector staff & volunteers in Northern Ireland

Book 16th May

The reality of CSE in our communities

Did you know that in Northern Ireland, 6% of children (141 children) listed on the child protection register at 31 March 2022, had sexual abuse – including child sexual exploitation (CSE) – listed as the reason why? (Barnardo’s, ‘Child Exploitation: A Hidden Crisis’, June 2023).
We also know this number is likely to be much higher due to under-reporting in this area and increased prevalence of online CSE.

We’re committed to helping tackle the issue

As part of our commitment to #BreakTheCycle of sexual abuse and abusive relationships, we’re proudly working in partnership with the Safeguarding Board for Northern Ireland to deliver FREE online awareness and information sessions to anyone working with children in the sports, faith, or community sectors in NI.
We have two online sessions running – one this month and one next month. We’re also exploring the possibility of holding an in-person session in the Western Health & Social Care Trust Area on Wednesday 26th June. If you’d be keen to attend this, please let us know by expressing your interest via the link below. Please note that this in-person session may be replaced with an online session based on demand.

What you’ll learn

With these sessions we aim to increase participants’ awareness of:
What Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) is
What the warning signs are, and
How to best support and signpost as part of safeguarding children

Ready to make a difference?

By joining one of these sessions, you’ll not only enrich the lives of the young people you work with but also invest in a brighter, healthier future for your community.
If you work in one of the sectors above, you can play your part to prevent harm by attending either of our upcoming FREE online sessions via one of the buttons below, or express your interest for the free in-person session
