Adelegladman Bewertungen 

Adele is a brilliant auditor, extremely knowledgeable and supportive. Not stuffy or overbearing, just a decent human being who wants to ensure that companies are compliant. If you are looking for an auditor who genuinely takes an interest in your client’s business, their processes and wants them to be the best in their industry, then I cannot recommend Adele highly enough.

I had a fantastic experience with the training delivered by Adele Gladman and Sherri on “The Manosphere and Toxic Masculinity.”

The session was incredibly informative, engaging and thought-provoking, and really helped to develop my understanding of the influence that online spaces, social media algorithms and influencers can have on young people’s beliefs, attitudes and behaviours.

What I particularly valued was how practical the session was. It encouraged open discussion and reflection rather than simply delivering information, and provided useful prompt questions, resources and a risk checklist that can be directly applied to safeguarding and clinical practice. The trauma-informed approach to having these conversations with young people was particularly valuable, focusing on curiosity and understanding rather than confrontation or judgement.

The session has increased my confidence in recognising potential signs of harmful online influence and understanding the wider safeguarding implications, including online harm, harmful sexual behaviour, coercive control and peer-on-peer abuse.

Adele and Sherri were both incredibly knowledgeable and approachable, and created a really safe space for discussion. I came away with a greater awareness of the issues, practical tools to support my practice and lots to reflect on.

I would highly recommend their training to anyone working with children, young people and families. It is an increasingly important area of safeguarding, and one that professionals need to feel confident having conversations about.

I cannot recommend Adele Gladman highly enough for safeguarding training. Safeguarding is an incredibly complex, sensitive, and agile subject area, but Adele always delivers with absolute clarity, authority, and empathy.

Rather than just treating it as a compliance box-checking exercise, Adele brought the content to life with realistic scenarios, practical insights that relate to our sector, and actionable advice. She creates a safe, open space where our team felt comfortable asking difficult questions and discussing complex case studies.

I have used Adele for training for 10 years; every year, Adele's knowledge base helps our team feel equipped to work with confidence in safeguarding after every session.

We have been APSCo members for a couple of years, and with the changes in the recruitment market we decided to take the next step and work towards Compliance+ accreditation.

As a relatively new business, now in our fourth year, this was the first time we had personally taken an agency through the Compliance+ audit process. Whilst we have all worked for audited agencies in the past, the responsibility of leading the process ourselves was understandably daunting. With over 400 audit points assessed and a very high pass mark required, the outcome was business-critical for us.

From the outset, Adele was excellent. Before the audit, she took the time to explain exactly what to expect, the standards required, and what she would be looking for. That guidance gave us the confidence to go away, make the necessary improvements, and prepare properly.

I’m delighted to say we have now successfully passed our first Compliance+ audit.

Throughout the entire process, Adele was approachable, fair and transparent. She clearly has exceptionally high standards and isn’t prepared to let them slip, but she is equally supportive and constructive. Rather than feeling like someone trying to catch you out, she makes you feel like you’re working together towards achieving excellence.

Now that we’ve been through the process, I can honestly say Adele made what could have been a very stressful experience as smooth, professional and positive as possible.

Thank you, Adele. We look forward to working with you again next year and would highly recommend you to any agency considering Compliance+.

It was nothing short of a pleasure working with Adele throughout our transition to Compliance+ standards and during the audit process itself. At no stage did we feel as though we were being audited or scrutinised. Instead, Adele fostered a genuinely collaborative and supportive relationship, creating an effective partnership built on guidance, transparency and a shared commitment to achieving the highest standards of compliance and safeguarding for the schools we support.

Adele's knowledge, professionalism and willingness to go above and beyond gave us complete confidence throughout the process. She was always approachable, responsive and invested in helping us strengthen our systems, rather than simply assessing them.

If you are looking not only for an auditor, but for a knowledgeable and supportive compliance professional who is genuinely committed to helping organisations achieve the highest standards, I would wholeheartedly recommend Adele. We could not have asked for a better person to guide us through our first Compliance+ audit and on to successful accreditation.

Thank you sincerely, Adele.

Adele has always been fantastic in providing us with the appropriate support & guidance regarding Safeguarding, when needed.

She is a cooperative, friendly face I always have a pleasure speaking with, who has a clear passion and advanced understanding of Safeguarding.

Adele is brilliant at what she does. She is a true professional and an expert in safeguarding, and the credibility she brings really helps hold us to a high standard.

Instead of just rolling out a generic, duplicated training package, she took the time to adapt the course so it was completely specific to our work at Thorpe Park. It made a massive difference, turning a two-day course into something genuinely engaging rather than a box-ticking exercise. The whole team was fully focused and involved from start to finish. Highly recommended.

I have worked with Adele for over a year now and it's been an absolute pleasure, she is engaging, passionate and extremely knowledgeable. Adele held a training session and although the subject matter can be daunting all my staff came away with positive comments about the training. Adele has created policies for our business also and has been patient and very pragmatic when dealing with me. It's a pleasure to deal with Adele!

Accessible and relevant training with a highly experienced safeguarding expert.

We’ve worked with Adele Gladman, and now Adele Gladman & Associates, for over five years and have consistently been impressed by the depth of knowledge, insight, and clarity they bring. Their ability to communicate complex concepts in a practical, accessible way has made a real difference to our business. The training and consultancy provided by Adele and her team have been genuinely transformational.

Adele’s courses are amazing. They are well paced and extremely informative.

It was a really informative session and plenty of takeaways to think about and apply in our workplace. Adele is so knowledgeable and experienced. Really good to learn more about other companies and their best practices with regard to safeguarding and safer recruitment

Adele was amazing. Really detailed, allowed us to ask any clarifying questions and made it interactive to we all stayed engaged!

Would highly recommend!

We have been very satisfied with the service we have received. Adele Gladman brings experience and professionalism to what can be a sensitive and complex area of work. She communicated clearly throughout the process and delivered thorough and well-considered outcomes.

Adele has delivered safeguarding training to our whole company, as well as more advanced sessions for our Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSLs). The training was excellent and clearly tailored to the sector we work in, making sure we understood exactly what we need to be aware of in practice.

Adele created a safe and supportive environment where people felt comfortable sharing ideas and experiences, which is especially important given how challenging this topic can be when it involves vulnerable adults and children. Adele was very mindful of the potential emotional impact on attendees and handled the content sensitively and appropriately.

The presentations in all sessions were engaging, and the group activities were relevant and thought-provoking. We also really appreciated being able to ask questions at any point, both during and after the session, making the whole experience more accessible and practical.

I would highly recommend Adele for safeguarding training, she is highly professional, hugely experienced and an absolute pleasure to work with.

Adele is an outstanding safeguarding trainer who consistently delivers training of the highest quality. Her sessions are clear, engaging, and incredibly informative. She has a remarkable ability to break down complex policies and procedures, making them easy to understand and apply in your context.

What truly sets Adele apart is her passion for ensuring that everyone she trains feels confident, prepared, and empowered to safeguard children and vulnerable adults. Her depth of knowledge, professionalism, and approachable style create a learning environment where participants feel supported and inspired.

Having worked with Adele for the past 8 years I always leave her training feeling significantly more equipped and aware. I cannot recommend Adele highly enough. If you want impactful, thorough, and expert-led safeguarding training, Adele is the absolute best.
