We follow the Archery GB policy on safeguarding children, young persons and vulnerable adults. The full policy can be found here.
In addition to the above, we have some specific policies regarding this. In practical terms this means that we will only accept Juniors over 10 years old onto our courses. Furthermore, Juniors under 16 must be accompanied at all times on the course by a parent or guardian. Juniors over 16 may attend unaccompanied, provided we have a signed consent form from a parent or guardian.
It is the parent or guardian’s responsibility to see that the Junior is delivered to, and collected from, each session in a timely manner. Please do not leave unaccompanied Juniors at the venue, before or after each session, as this is not our responsibility.
Who do I contact with a concern?
Samantha Bostock is Cheltenham Archers designated Safeguarding Officer. She is the first point of contact to report any concern and her email address is safeguarding@cheltenhamarchers.com
