Can you spare a few hours a month to keep our children safe?

Volunteer Required
- Norman Peers

The Club are pleased to announce that Paul Grealis (U12`s Coach) has agreed to volunteer for the position of Club Safeguarding Officer with immediate effect replacing Pete Grady.

Everyone at the Club will be sorry to see Pete depart his role which is a vital position within the organisation and Pete did a magnificent job and was respected by all and we hope he will continue to be part of the Saints army.

As Paul has moved from being Pete`s right hand man we are now seeking a new Assistant Safeguarding Officer to work alongside him.

ROLE DESCRIPTION

• Liaise with CSO as and when required along with deputising in Paul`s absence.
• Provide leadership in safeguarding children within the club.
• Ensure a supportive and positive environment in which children can enjoy rugby safely is maintained.
• Make sure everyone understands the RFU Codes of Conduct and core values: Teamwork, Sportsmanship, Enjoyment, Discipline and Respect.
• Verify and confirm accreditation information.
• Distribute new information concerning safeguarding of young people.
• Maintain a system of DBS checking anyone working with young people.
• Arrange a programme of training for club personnel working with young people (e.g. Safeguarding – Play it Safe and In Touch courses)
• All safeguarding issues and incidents are reported promptly.

Remember this is a vital role within the Club and for the RFU so it is:

“A MUST FILL POSITION”
