Safeguarding
Beckford Tennis Club takes very seriously the need to prioritise the well-being and safety of all our members, in particular all children under 18 and any adults at risk. Our policies and procedures are aligned to statutory responsibilities, government guidance and the LTA’s best practice standards.
