“We completed our L3 Safeguarding Children’s training with First Step Training and it was very insightful and interactive. The trainer was very knowledgeable and skilled at getting staff to think how they could safeguarding children and how to implement best practice in our service. The First Step team made sure they talked to us and understood our service and what we did so they could make sure the training fitted our business, and used our policies to educate staff on understanding how important these were.”
