Safeguarding

Arnside Sailing Club aims to provide a safe and welcoming environment where children and young people can have fun and develop their skills and confidence. We will treat all children with respect, celebrate their achievements and listen to their views and experiences.

Arnside Sailing Club is committed to safeguarding children taking part in its activities from physical, sexual or emotional harm, neglect or bullying. We recognise that the safety, welfare and needs of the child are paramount and that any child, irrespective of age, disability, race, religion or belief, sex, sexual or gender identity or social status, has a right to protection from discrimination and abuse. Arnside Sailing Club takes all reasonable steps to ensure that,  through recruitment of instructors and  volunteers, appropriate operating procedures and training, it offers a safe and fun environment to children taking part in our events and activities.

The club’s welfare officer is Mary Adams. welfare@arnsidesailingclub.org.uk  If you have any concerns please raise them with her.
