Half-day webinar on the topic of Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) as well as recognising sexual harassment, healthy relationships, and consent. Earlier this year, the premier league mandated such training for all players.

This training is 100% beginner friendly, and you are guaranteed to leave having learnt about the topic of VAWG, from government definitions to real-life case studies. We will also challenge common myths held about abuse and violence, and by the end of the training, you should have the tools to respond sensitively and confidently to disclosures.
