Making the Child Safety Standards work for everyone.
We know the importance of meaningful and practical policy documents. We have done the hard work to design documents that ensure your club can be effective and efficient while keeping those most vulnerable safe.
We can provide templates customised to your clubs colours for individual or multiple policies along with a guide for the Coaches, Officials and volunteers and materials for your social media, walls and newsletters. We can build a package of resources that are right for your club.
Our training/briefing session is a great way for everyone in the club to get the same message and be prepared to have best practice when incidents or complaints are raised and to be able to deliver clear and appropriate outcomes.

Child Safe Policies

We all want to capture every moment, and it is so very easy to do these days, but it is important to remember that everybody has their own story and taking photos of children without consent can harm them and or put them in danger in some cases.
Here is an example of a best practice video and photo policy.

This is the foundation of Child Safe practice in your club and community

A clear and straight forward explanation of expected conduct and behaviour across the club.

This defines the appropriate levels of supervision for various activities and clarifies duty of care for the club and parents/guardians.

This helps guide adults and children & young people to use their own images and the images of others safely and respectfully. The impact of poorly managed social media can have a catastrophic impact.
