Safeguarding
Nailsea Lawn Tennis Club is committed to prioritising the well-being of all children and adults at risk, and promoting safeguarding in our club at all times, including in the programmes and events we run.
We are registered with the LTA and comply with the LTA's Safeguarding policies.
Our club safeguarding policies strive to enable us to minimise risk, deliver a positive tennis experience for everyone and respond appropriately to all safeguarding concerns and disclosures.
We have a Club Welfare Officer, who is responsible for promoting safeguarding within the venue, and working with others to ensure a safe and inclusive environment is achieved.
Club Welfare Officer - Simon McSweeney
“I’ve been a member of Nailsea Lawn Tennis Club since 2022. My children also enjoy tennis and take part in coaching and summer sessions. Outside of tennis, I work in a local primary school and manage a Nailsea Juniors football team. If you have any safeguarding concerns, please contact me.”
