Protective Behaviours
Protective Behaviours is a practical down to earth approach to personal safety. It is a process that encourages self-empowerment and brings with it the skills to raise self-esteem and to help avoid being victimised.

The Protective Behaviours process encourages an adventurous approach to life that satisfies the need for fun and excitement without violence and fear.
We are interested in PBs as another usefu; tool in Cornwall's Toolbox of Wellbeing (for example, in the context of our recent involvement in the Child Exploitation Awareness / County Lines work in Cornwall and the Resilience Framework (created by BoingBoing)
More information about PBs can be found on our website
