A training programme for staff working with children to help them respond to suspected child sexual abuse has been introduced by the NSPCC. The charity's Educare programme, 'Creating a culture of safety', is a distance learning scheme aimed at people working in after-school clubs, leisure facilities or for any organisation providing activities for children or for adults who are accompanied by children. The programme confronts myths about adults who pose a threat to children, as well as covering recruitment practices and what to do when witnessing worrying behaviour. Contact the NSPCC on 020 7825 2775.
