Help make your Wandsworth venue a safer place for all by booking your team onto the free sexual harassment and drink-spiking prevention training from Wandsworth Council.
The free online training is designed to help your staff recognise signs of sexual harassment and drink spiking and respond in a safe way, helping to protect vulnerable customers.
The course is tailored to staff working in the hospitality industry, like pubs, bars, restaurants, clubs, cafés, hotels, and other licensed premises, and it can be completed at a time that’s suitable to you.
The training will help to create a safer business community across Wandsworth’s night-time economy.
The course covers:
- Understanding and recognising sexual harassment
- Identifying the signs and risks of drink spiking
- Responding safely and appropriately to incidents and concerns
- Supporting vulnerable customers
- Using the Ask for Angela scheme effectively
- Understanding legal responsibilities and good practice standards
Hospitality staff are often on the frontline of incidents of sexual harassment, and this course will equip your team with the practical tools, knowledge and confidence to respond safely and support customers.
Councillor Lynsey Hedges, the lead on tackling violence against women and girls, said: “Everyone should be able to enjoy a night out in Wandsworth without fear of harassment, harm or assault. Wandsworth has a fun and thriving night-time economy that attracts people from all over London. By working together, we can create safer places for residents and visitors to party in peace.”
