Cumberland FA are once again supporting Cumbria Safeguarding Children Partnership's Safeguarding Week, which takes place from 14 - 18 March 2022

We're urging Cumberland Clubs to join us for Safeguarding Week 2022. This year’s theme is ‘learning from practice’ 

Partners from Cumbria Safeguarding Children Partnership have come together to develop an extensive programme of learning events, seminars and interactive sessions. The programme of events will be delivered virtually throughout the week providing ease of access for all attendees.

Developed for practitioners, the programme offers a packed schedule of sessions which will be delivered by inspirational and motivational speakers, all of whom are experts in their field. The professional sessions will cover key safeguarding areas and have been designed to stimulate discussion, share best practice, spark innovation and support continuing professional development.

The launch event will be opened by Lesley Walker, Cumbria Safeguarding Children’s Partnership’s Independent Scrutineer.

SAFEGUARDING IN FOOTBALL

Safeguarding children is everyone's responsibility. If you are worried about a child it is important that you report your concerns - no action is not an option.

If you are concerned about your child or another child in your club, you would normally contact your Club Welfare Officer (CWO) in the first instance - every Youth Football Club in Cumberland has one.

You should be given the contact details of the CWO at the start of the season. If you do not know who your CWO is, speak to a coach in your club and ask for their details. The CWO will normally deal with cases of poor practice and behaviour within your club. Click HERE to visit our Safeguarding and Welfare page.

For concerns of a serious nature or for advice and guidance contact our Designated Safeguarding Officer, Mel Sandwith on 07704 156780 Safeguarding@CumberlandFA.com
