Rustlings Lawn Tennis Club is committed to prioritising the wellbeing of all children and adults, promoting safeguarding at all times, including on all programmes and during events we run. We are committed to ensuring safeguarding practice reflects statutory responsibilities and government guidance and that it complies with best practice and LTA requirements. Members are expected to familiarise themselves, and act in accordance with the LTA’s Code of Conduct at all times.
We have two trained Welfare Officers who are responsible for overseeing safeguarding at the Rustlings. Their contact details are displayed on posters in the Clubhouse, and the changing rooms, and included in Our Safeguarding Policy.
Members are reminded that Safeguarding is Everyone’s Responsibility, and not responding to a safeguarding concern is not an option. If you have a safeguarding concern or disclosure, please inform one of our Welfare Officers as soon as possible or contact the LTA Safeguarding Team via the secure online form available at https://www.lta.org.uk/about-us/safeguarding-protection/
