Safeguarding in Taekwondo

Safeguarding

We want everyone to have the best possible involvement in Taekwondo.

We strive to make sure that everyone who takes part in our sport is safe and happy.

Everyone in our sport must ensure that:

  • The welfare of all members is paramount.
  • Whatever their age, culture, disability, gender, language, racial origin, religious beliefs and/or sexual identity, they have the right to protection from abuse.
  • Any suspicions and allegations of abuse and poor practice will be taken seriously and responded to swiftly and appropriately.
  • They value all members and listen to and respect them.
  • They create a positive culture and climate.

Our Safeguarding Children Policy and Safeguarding Adults Policy set out in more detail what we expect from everyone, and the action that we will take should things need addressing.

If you have any non-urgent concerns, please contact our Head of Safeguarding and Compliance by clicking the button below.

If your concern is of an urgent nature, please make a referral to the Police, Children’s Social Services or the NSPCC (who can make a referral on your behalf) within 24 hours and record the actions taken and agreed.

Is the child in immediate danger or are they injured? If so, contact the emergency services first.
