Triathlon England will be delivering a series of face to face workshops across the country, for the very first time.
These free, 3-hour workshops will provide new and existing Club Welfare Officers the opportunity to understand their role within a Triathlon club and their responsibilities in relation to safeguarding and protecting children and young people.
The workshops will:
- Describe how a club welfare officer works with others to create a child centred environment
- Explain how the club welfare officer role fits into the wider safeguarding environment
- Apply learning to case studies including sharing good safeguarding practice
Attendees should have previously attended a UK Coaching Safeguarding and Protecting Children Workshop.
