"Common sense is not enough, when it comes to the health and safety of volunteers. You have got to have a system that is implemented on a consistent basis." - In Safe Hands Toolkit
GSLN together with the Conservation Skills Centre (and CVA) is providing a free-for-financial members training course designed to equip volunteers with the skills to safely manage people in their environmental volunteering group. This course covers:
- Safety policy and procedures - OH&S - Safety prompts and risk assessment - Volunteer induction, and - Record keeping 
The In Safe Hands toolkit has been developed with over 30 years of environmental volunteering and conservation experience by the <A HREF="https://conservationskills.org.au/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Conservation Skills Centre</A>, a registered training organisation and part of Conservation Volunteers Australia. Participants will be provided with a toolkit (one per member group).
