SafeGolf is a partnership of UK golf bodies committed to promoting a safe and positive environment for all those participating, working and volunteering in the sport of golf.
SafeGolf consists of members from the golfing bodies across Great Britain & Ireland and has been established to help golf respond to the issue of child protection in sport. Its mission is to safeguard the welfare of children and young people, as well as adults at risk, in the sport of golf. This will be achieved through a unique partnership which has the ability to influence and act as advocate for safeguarding across the golfing landscape, developing a consistent approach towards ensuring that all people have a fun, safe and positive experience when playing golf.
Studley Wood Golf Club fully supports this initiative and has introduced the following:
- Safeguarding Children and Young People Policy and Procedures
- Safeguarding Adults Policy and Procedures
- Our Club Welfare Officer is Ken Heathcote
The club is currently working through the steps necessary to be formally recognised as a SafeGolf club.
