On 26^th November, 9:30am-1pm at Horley Community Centre we are running our ‘Get Connected’ event for local professionals and organisations who work with young people. This year we are supporting the prevention of Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) and Domestic Abuse, working with East Surrey Domestic Abuse Services (ESDAS) and the VAWG team at Surrey County Council to hold Get Connected during The 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence annual national campaign.

The event will have ‘market stalls’ to raise awareness of services and there will be focused small group discussions and learning around how we can best empower and upskill young people and their parents around digital skills, online safety and healthy relationships.

We are extending this invitation out to local Councillors as an opportunity to increase knowledge around this important area of safeguarding, and in case it is of interest to your both professionally or personally. If you are interested to attend, please email communitypartnerships@reigate-banstead.gov.uk
