Description
A ½-day course to increase awareness, build confidence and equip customer-facing teams with the knowledge and skills to identify and respond to financial abuse. Through insight, discussion and case study learning, delegates will gain practical tools to better support customers experiencing financial harm or control.
Financial abuse can be complex, hidden and difficult to disclose. Organisations play a critical role in recognising the signs and responding appropriately. The way we engage with customers may either reduce harm or unintentionally increase risk. During this course we explore how to make a safe, supportive and informed difference.
Delegates will have the opportunity to reflect, share experiences, develop practical questioning techniques and participate in activities and scenario-based discussions.
