Child Protection Officers

|
|
All sporting organisations which make provision for children and young people
must ensure that:
• The welfare of the child is paramount;
• All children, whatever their age, culture, disability, gender, language, racial origin religious beliefs and/or sexual identity have the right to protection from abuse;
• All suspicions and allegations of abuse will be taken seriously and responded to swiftly and appropriately;
• All coaches working in canoeing/kayaking have a responsibility to report concerns to the appropriate officer.
Staff/volunteers are not trained to deal with situations of abuse nor decide if abuse has occurred. |
