The Bovingdon & Flaunden Tennis club strives to ensure that all children (anyone under 18) and adults at risk are safeguarded from abuse and have an enjoyable tennis experience.

Bullying is defined as a range of abusive behaviour that is repeated and intended to hurt someone either physically or emotionally.

We recognise that  

• Bullying causes real distress. It can affect a person’s health and development and, at the extreme, can cause significant harm  
• All children and adults at risk, regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation, have the right to equal protection from all types of harm or abuse
• Everyone has a role to play in preventing all forms of bullying (including online) and putting a stop to bullying.
