Safeguarding & Welfare Policy

PLEASE NOTE OUR PREVIOUS SAFEGUARDING OFFICER HAS RECENTLY LEFT THE CLUB AND WHISLT WE ARE WITHOUT AN OFFICIAL OFFICER, WE ARE CURRENTLY WORKING WITH BRITISH CYCLING TO UNDERSTAND BEST HOW TO FILL THAT GAP.

The welfare policy is primarily intended to develop a sense of awareness and guidance on safeguarding and protecting children (though the Sussex Nomads Cycling Club has no members under 18, we may arrange events where minors participate) and vulnerable adults involved in activities with Sussex Nomads Cycling Club.

The policy is also concerned about the welfare of everyone at the club irrespective of age, gender, race, disability, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion and political view. Everyone who is involved in the club is entitled to access an enjoyable and safe environment and to have the chance to experience the excitement, challenge and achievement inherent to the sport.

Whilst we await the appointment of a new Safeguarding Officer, please contact the club if you have any concerns about matters relating to the welfare of mermbers.
