As a parent or carer you play an important role in protecting your child and helping them get the best from their activities. We want to ensure that all children have the best possible experience and we want to help you to make the right decisions about where your child takes part in activities and how to ensure their safety. When choosing from the many activities available in local communities there are a number of questions you could ask and things to look for in relation to the safety of your child. This includes the organisations commitment to good practice and child protection. Child Protection Policy. A good organisation will welcome questions about its activities and safety. It should have a Child Protection Policy and you should be told what to do if your child has concerns. Ask about how the organisation promotes the welfare of children (this can include taking a register, first aid provision, number of children to the number of staff ratio and signing children in and out). Criminal Records Bureau Check. You need to be sure that all staff and volunteers working with your child are suitable. Ask the club if it conducts enhanced level CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) checks on staff and helpers. Training and Education. Appropriate training and education ensures that everyone working with your child is aware of how to make activities enjoyable. 34 www.morethansport.com Ask if staff and helpers have undertaken appropriate training through a recognised governing body. Organisation Accreditation. Find out whether the organisation has a recognised accreditation award. This shows that it has achieved a recognised minimum operating standard that ensures it provides a good experience for children. Worcestershire Safeguarding Children Board. The Worcestershire Safeguarding Children Board (WSCB) consists of senior representatives of the main agencies which have a responsibility to safeguard children. It is a forum for establishing and guiding the services in Worcestershire to safeguard and promote the well-being of children. Inter-agency working is at the heart of safeguarding and protecting children and the WSCB works to ensure that all the agencies communicate with one another in the interests of the child. For further information visit their website, www.worcestershiresafeguarding.org.uk where you’ll also find links to other useful websites. If you have worries about possible abuse or neglect of a child or young person, please don’t keep it to yourself.
