Safe Club Support Visits
Scottish Gymnastics are inviting clubs to join the pilot for the Safe Club Support Visits programme.
The safe club visits aim to support clubs to meet and attain the minimum safeguarding standards. The process consists of a mix of in person visits, online meetings and access to the sportscotland club self-assessment, Child Wellbeing & Protection in Sport Club (CWPS) tool. Our safeguarding team will work together with those involved using the CWPS tool to identify the club’s current position in relation to the safeguarding standards, identify areas for development and create an action plan.
Safe club support visits aim to:
- Embed best practice within your club.
- Support the creation of better safeguarding governance.
- Promote the ways of reporting concerns.
- Improve knowledge and confidence for those with safeguarding responsibilities in the club.
Please note, we recognise that each club is different. Clubs will not be judged based on their current position, this is a supportive project to help clubs become the best they can be. Together we will ensure gymnastics is enjoyable, safe and open to everyone.
