SUMMARY:Too Young to Fail
DESCRIPTION:Save the Children invites you to attend: TOO YOUNG TO FAIL – Giving all children a fair chance in life \nAttendance is free and is on a first come\, first served basis. \nIt is widely acknowledged that living on or below the poverty line often traps children into a cycle of low educational attainment.

SUMMARY:National Intelligence Event 2013 - free
DESCRIPTION:In the know? Do we understand our communities’ needs\, and how well we are meeting them? \nIn the current financial situation\, the need to be ‘in the know’ has never been so important. Our ability to target resources and to prioritise public services and ensure value for money is essential. \nIt is therefore vital that we understand our communities\, their needs\, and improved ways in which we can engage with citizens. It is also equally important that we are able to effectively evaluate whether the interventions and initiatives we are delivering are providing positive outcomes. \nThis one-day event will bring together national partners to: \n·        Explore the issues around obtaining meaningful evidence and insight. \n·        Address the challenges of obtaining data at a community level in Wales. \n·        Consider how commercial data can help fill the gaps in our knowledge. \n·        Understand the role effective evaluation plays in knowing if we’ve made a difference. \nThe event will include workshop sessions focussed on Welfare Reform\, Census information\, evaluation techniques and citizen engagement. \n   \nThis event will be of interest to you if you: \n·        Play a leadership role in your Local Service Board. \n·        Are involved in developing policies or plans\, such as the ‘Single Integrated Plan’ for your area. \n·        Plan or monitor the delivery of plans or services. \n·        Support the development and delivery of local plans and services through research or consultation within local authorities\, health\, police and other partner organisations. \n·        Are engaged in obtaining the views of citizens. \n    \nThis is a FREE event.

SUMMARY:Understanding Hate Crime workshop
DESCRIPTION:‘Incidents targeting people because of who they are (e.g. hate crimes) are under-reported\, meaning many victims are unable to access the support they need\, or to secure justice’. In 2011/12\, there were 1809 hate incidents and crimes reported to the police in Wales\, of which 1368 were racially and religiously motivated\, 244 were motivated by homophobia; 21 by transphobia and 122 reports of attacks against disabled people. \nThe aim of this workshop is to: promote awareness of race\, faith\, homophobic\, biphobic\, transphobic and disability hate crime; identify strategies to raise awareness within your workplace and the community and know what to do if you suspect a hate crime has been committed.  \nThe session is highly interactive and case study led. Various training methods will be used\, including details of cases which some participants may find a little disturbing.   \n    \nFeedback comments:  \n‘Eye-opening day. Incredibly helpful on both occupational and personal level’; \n‘Achieved above and beyond. More than I could have wished for’; \n‘I understand more about stress and different ways to cope’;  \n‘A really enjoyable experience’ \n    \nThe tutor is Mark Roberts\, a Training Delivery Manager with Diverse Cymru. Until March 2013 Mark managed the Anti-Hate Crime project at Safer Wales Ltd\, a Cardiff-based charity.

SUMMARY:"Keeping Our Children Safe" Training for Designated Person for Child Protection
DESCRIPTION:A two-day Children in Wales course \nAll children have the right to live lives free from abuse and neglect but recent events highlight\, yet again\, how difficult it can be for so many adults to recognise\, and act on concerns about the safety or welfare of a child.  The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child states that all organisations concerned with children should work towards what’s best for each child.
