Our Safeguarding Priorities
For 2024/25 our focus is on developing a networking group for our county welfare leads and offering them training where required. We will also connect with the region’s Active Partnership Welfare Officers and access theirs and wider multi-agency support if a concern arises.
Our Safeguarding Lead
To support this work, we have a Safeguarding Lead who is responsible for the development & implementation of safeguarding and welfare policies & processes. They are the link to the England Netball safeguarding Manager/Team for concerns in the region. They are the first point of contact for all safeguarding related concerns at Netball South West and will appropriately deal with these concerns in a timely manner and in accordance with relevant policies and legislation.
