What previous delegates said

Very worthwhile use of time. Left the conference with new ideas and initiatives to use within my trust. ​
Ali CoxDesignated Safeguarding Manager, The Gallery Trust
CST Safeguarding Conferences give us all an opportunity to find out about life outside our trusts, and helps give us confidence that we are doing a good job! ​
Brian DuffyDirector of Safeguarding & Compliance, The Shaw Education Trust ​
The CST Safeguarding conference is a powerful opportunity to reflect on leading safeguarding at scale and really questioning the why behind what we do. I really value the constant emphasis on safeguarding culture and always putting children at the heart of decisions. Thank you.
