REPORTING PROCEDURES

It is important that unacceptable behaviour is dealt with quickly and appropriately. Therefore it is essential that people know where to go if they want to report a concern or incident.

If you have a concern about poor practice or abuse especially if it relates to a young person you should immediately contact the Club Welfare Officer. In their absence, contact England Hockey’s Lead Child Welfare Officer.

Club Welfare Officer: Andy Dale 07725432013 [email protected] IF you have any concerns about a child, whether yours, someone else’s, about any activity inside or outside of the club then please get in touch and we will discuss it with you.
