All seminars for your course will take place in the same room each week.

Course content
The course will introduce you to what it means to be an active bystander, how to recognise harmful behaviours, and how we can respond as active bystanders to keep the members of our communities safe.
Culture of the course
It is important that we create an environment in which you, and all other course participants, feel able to participate fully.

The sessions are not recorded, so if you are unable to attend one of your seminars please contact the Programme Manager, Sam Parr, to make alternative arrangements.
