Safeguarding@TSA - Foundational & Advanced Training Information for Volunteers
The Salvation Army is committed to a safeguarding culture that ensures the safety and wellbeing of children and young people. As a child safe organisation who engages with children and young people, we are obligated by law to ensure we provide a safe space when engaging with them.
Our commitment to child safety also extends to the safety of personnel to whom we provide the knowledge, skills and support to safely engage with children and young people.
TSA's safeguarding training is the reflection of The Salvation Army's Mission in action: Caring for people, Building healthy communities and Working for justice and its commitment to the safety and wellbeing of children and young people.
The Salvation Army's Code of Conduct and accompanying training further defines the expected standards of behaviour, conduct and guidelines for working with children and vulnerable people and responsibilities for personal conduct when engaged with The Salvation Army.
Personnel under 18 years old do not need to complete either safeguarding module.
As a child safe organisation and a safe employer, The Salvation Army has an obligation to ensure that young people engaged with us are safe. An under 18 safeguarding resource will be made available shortly for employees and volunteers who are under the age of 18.
