NSPCC

Just wondering if anyone has experience of working with NSPCC using PBs, or knows if NSPCC is aware of PBs programme?

Not me although have mentioned it to people representing NSPCC, Banardos and Childline when been in the same place at the same time. Think I emailed Esther Rantzen as well a while ago - didn't get a reply and didn't persist as had other stuff going on. Action for Children have a PBs project mainly running in Hertfordshire and managed by Fiona Benjamin.
Have always thought it would be great to be able to link up with such organisations so perhaps this could be a good time to try again. I wonder if Safety Net or PBUK have any experience of this too? And perhaps Di or Hollyann may have experience of this with the equivalent Australian organisations? Will be interesting to see what information other PB People might have.

Amanda from NSPCC was part of the original PBs group in MK.

Hi Joc,
thanks for this. Don't know that I know Amanda though - do you have her surname and any contact details for her? Do you know if she is still working with PBs/NSPCC?

Amanda Booth - don't know where she is now, I'm afraid.

I have trained NSPCC staff in a project in Coventry. Also ran a course in their Leicestershire HQ but I'd I remember rightly that was because another organisation hired their facilities and sent people from all over to be trained there.
