Safeguarding Can Feel Like a Risky Business for Those Who Care…
- How do I know when someone needs help?
- What if I’m wrong?
- I don’t know where to go for help.
- What if I miss something?
- What if I make it worse by getting involved?
- I’m worried I’ll lose my job.
- What if I say the wrong thing?
- My concern didn’t hit the threshold — what do I do now?
- What if I don’t understand?
- I don’t get enough time to keep proper records.
- What if I’m putting my own safety at risk?
- I’m scared to ask questions.
- We don’t have the right processes in place.
These are just some of the questions and concerns you might find turning round in your head when it comes to safeguarding — we hear them all the time.
Caring for others can take a toll, especially if you’re underprepared. You never know what’s coming your way, or when, so being as informed and aware as possible is the best you can do…
And your best is good enough.
At Dilloway Training, our mission is to provide you with the tools you need to face any safeguarding situation with confidence. We make sure you know what to do and where to go for help.

Empowering You to Keep Vulnerable People Safe
Hi, I’m Sadie, founder of Dilloway Training, affectionately known as ‘Sadie the Safeguarding Lady’!
As a survivor of domestic abuse, I understand what it’s like to walk on eggshells and to wonder whether you’ll make it through the day safely. My story happened many years ago, but those early experiences and conversations inspired me to pursue a career where I knew I could make a real difference. When I found the strength to leave, I knew I could empower others to find their way through, too.
During many years on the ‘front line’, I’ve worked in a variety of roles and built a deep understanding of what it takes to keep everyone safe.
You see, it’s not just about your service users, it’s about you too!
Whether you’re on the front line or managing a team, someone’s safety and wellbeing could be relying on you. And if you’re not okay, how can you possibly look after or look out for someone else?
Every organisation, every person and every situation is different. That's why our training and consultancy services are definitely not ‘one-size-fits-all’.
By sharing real case studies, we bring training sessions to life and make teachings memorable. Engaging with every trainee individually ensures we verify understanding of the subject matter and encourage everyone to ask questions, share their experiences and air their concerns.
There are no safeguarding robots here!
We arm you with knowledge that gives you the confidence to trust your instincts and do the right thing.
So let’s keep everyone safe, together!
