This workshop is aimed at voluntary sector groups (Foster Care Agencies and charities supporting young people with accommodation and organisations working with carers) with the aim to better understand the role of an 'Appropriate Adult' at the police station.

This workshop will include a basic short training session on this role as well as information on the typical legal problems/scenarios the AA may face at the Police Station. It will be followed by discussion time and an opportunity to ask questions.
