Safeguarding

England Netball's besafe@englandnetball.co.uk is now active. This is specifically for anyone involved in netball to use should they wish to report a concern about the welfare of a child in netball. It can also be used to report concerns about the behaviour of a coach, official or other staff member/volunteer towards a child in netball. https://www.englandnetball.co.uk/governance/safeguarding/

Any messages sent to this address will be received by England Netball's independent child protection consultant and monitored by our Lead Child Protection Officer.

At WLJNL we comply with all safeguarding policies from England Netball, who are firmly committed to creating and maintaining a safe and positive environment for all young people to play netball.

If you need to report a concern, allegation, incident or have a complaint, please contact our Welfare Officer. All reports and concerns received by WLJNL are fully confidential. We can support you with confidential advice and guidance, or if you want to report something, but don’t want to take the investigation any further, we can note the nature of the concern which helps us to build up a picture of any emerging difficulties being experienced in clubs. If you choose not to log your concern, you may be putting others at risk of the same abuse as perpetrators of bullying will rarely improve their behaviour unless they are reproached.
