2nd National Black & Diverse Safeguarding Conference
In 2024, we launched the UK’s first national platform for Black safeguarding professionals (BDSC) — and the response was electric.
We gathered from Scotland to Wales, welcomed allies and spotlighted Black-owned businesses in a sold-out event that created space for connection, contribution, and culture.
Now, we’re back —
