Our commitment
A safe environment is everyone's responsibility
Our safeguarding approach follows the principles of the ECB Safe Hands framework and applicable safeguarding requirements. We aim to make it simple for members, parents, carers, volunteers and visitors to understand the standards we expect and how to raise a concern.
- We appoint an appropriately trained Club Safeguarding Officer as the principal point of contact for concerns.
- We use safer recruitment, appropriate ECB DBS vetting and safeguarding training where roles require it.
- We expect appropriate supervision, professional boundaries and safe communication with children and young people.
- We have clear arrangements for photography, live streaming, travel, junior cricket and responding to bullying.
- We respond promptly to concerns and refer matters through the appropriate safeguarding route when necessary.
