A Child-Safe organisation is committed to protecting children from physical, sexual, emotional and psychological harm and from neglect.
This commitment extends beyond creating an environment free from risk or danger. It is about building an environment that is both Child-Safe and Child-Friendly. An environment in which children feel respected, valued and encouraged to reach their full potential.
This commitment is embedded in the organisation’s culture, reflected in its policies and procedures, and is understood and practiced at all levels.
You have created a Child-Safe Organisation when your Club or group recognises its moral and legal responsibilities to ensure that children in its care are safe and establishes a safe and positive environment for them.
This approach will help your Club to grow and prosper into the future.
Please have a look at the attached Powerpoint Presentation. It will provide your club with information in establishing and maintaining a child-safe environment.
