HLC E-SAFETY PROTOCOLE-safety has risen in importance duringthe COVID-19 pandemic, as our learnersand partners have switched to on-linesupport and delivery. From asafeguarding perspective this createsthree areas of risk – Content: exposureto illegal, inappropriate or harmfulmaterial. Contact: being subject toharmful on-line interaction with otherusers. Conduct: personal on-linebehaviour that increases the likelihoodof, or causes harm.
From a learning delivery andinspection perspective we all have atwin safeguarding duty to protect andeducate learners/staff in the use oftechnology and to have appropriatesystems in place to intervene and dealwith any incident. In addition toregular Prevent and local threatupdates (see: volume 25 March 2021),HLC also supports our partners with e-safety checks, advice, and training.

RACHAEL FOSTER, CREATE TO
CHANGE, TALKS ABOUT HOW THEY
ARE HELPING YOUNG PEOPLE ACCESSTHE CREATIVE INDUSTRIES....Since its launch the GoodwinDevelopment Trust's Create toChanges programme (C2C) hasworked with more than 150 youngpeople and helped 87 of thoseprogress into employment, self-employment, education or training.
Its success is based upon threecomponents, which are thebusinesses, the recruitment processand myself and Kelsie, as thededicated key workers. You cannothave one without the other but I willargue that the businesses are themain contributing factor! They provideamazing opportunities, that in turnnaturally create a great recruitmentplatform for young, ambitious people.
Over the four years that this projecthas been running we have workedwith 100s of businesses and createdvaluable relationships throughout Hulland East Riding. During ourrecruitment process we invite thebusinesses in to talk to theparticipants we are working withabout the opportunities they areoffering.
In addition, they also run workshopswith us. We recently had Hull TruckTheatre Company run a workshop onhow to write a successful applicationand attend interviews. We often hearthat this is the best part of theprogramme, with people saying ‘whydon’t they get these people intoschools’, ‘I never knew we had somany opportunities in Hull,' ‘if itwasn’t for C2C I would never haveknown about all of these amazingbusinesses operating in Hull.'
Whilst working with the businessesthe participants are able to showcasetheir abilities and if/when they'retaken on, the young people are thenhelping to support the growth of thelocal industry. This has been verysuccessful with many of theemployers coming back to us againand again, spreading the word aboutC2C within their networks.
We would like to say a special thankyou to all the local companies in thecreative and hospitality sectors fortheir continuous support in enablingyoung adults to gain valuable workexperiences in Hull. For moreinformation, check out the C2CFacebook page LINK.
