  • To enable the VCSE sector to develop its safeguarding practices and policies with children, and to meet their safeguarding requirements
  • Develop and deliver Trauma Informed Training to VCSE groups and Organisations. · Facilitate the Bury VCSE Children, Young People's and Families Forum, including ensuring the production of the forum’s communications, paperwork and resources.
