The Management Committee is committed to safeguarding and equality for all members.

We have 5 core principes which we aim to comply with in order to promote safeguarding and equality:

1. We have Safeguarding and Equality policies that apply to all members, coaches and visitors
2. We encourage children and adults to create safe and inclusive tennis environments
3. We prioritise safe and inclusive recruitment, induction, training and support
4. We protect people’s confidential information about safeguarding and equality
5. We address safeguarding and discrimination concerns immediately

Safeguarding is managed on behalf of the Management Committee by the Welfare Officer.
