Stop pivot table slicers being deleted in Excel 2013

I have created a selection of pivot tables in Excel 2013, with pivot charts and slicers pasted onto a separate sheet.  The sheet is being used as a dashboard with the charts and the sheet "locked" and protected.

However, here is my problem...

To maintain the functionality of the slicers I have "unlocked" them allowing selection of the slicers filters (Month & Year) however the slicers can still be accidentally or deliberately deleted.


Does anyone know of a way of stopping the slicers from being deleted without loosing the functionality of the slicer itself?


@MicrosoftHelps on Twitter gave the following solution http://spr.ly/6016XMsw but didn't offer any solution.  By selecting "Edit Object" it now allows the charts to be selected and deleted too!
