The charity Missing People are delivering free online training to third sector organisations across Scotland in Missing Awareness.
This year the charity Missing People have received funding from the Scottish Government to deliver FREE training to third sector organisations across Scotland in Missing Awareness to increase knowledge of missing and explore how to build on the good practice in your local area.
They are inviting third sector staff across Scotland to join a short national online workshop on the 27th of August, that will cover:
- Identifying indicators someone could be at risk of going missing
- Exploring best practice responses to support someone who has returned from a missing episode and prevention of future missing episodes.
- Awareness raising of the National Missing Persons Framework
- Awareness of Missing People services, including our new SafeCall service for children and young people.
This session is free and funded by the Scottish Government as part of the National Missing Person Framework Implementation Project.

About DVVA
Dundee Volunteer and Voluntary Action is an independent charity that aims to ensure the third sector (charities, social enterprises, community and voluntary groups etc.) is robust, resilient and delivers high quality services for the people of Dundee.
We provide a wide range of support to third sector organisations and have expertise in a wide range of skills and topics including governance, funding, legislation, policy, planning and problem solving to name just a few key areas.
We have a primary role in ensuring the continuation and development of a vibrant third sector in Dundee, and achieve this by supporting organisations to be:
well governed and managed to enable them to deliver quality outcomes
better connected and able to influence and contribute to public policy
Dundee Volunteer and Voluntary Action is a Registered Charity (No. SC000487) and a Company Limited by Guarantee (No. SC093088), and began life as Dundee Association for Social Services in 1953. The change in name was made in 1988 to reflect our changing role as a member organisation promoting community welfare more directly through voluntary action.
