If something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t. Speak to someone.

Gymnastics is a chance to have fun, learn skills and be with your friends.

If anyone stops you feeling safe and happy at gymnastics, you should talk to someone you trust.

Welsh Gymnastics wants everyone to enjoy a fun and positive experience in a safe environment.

Everyone in Welsh Gymnastics environments must adhere to our Safeguarding and Wellbeing Policy.

Should you have any questions about safeguarding and wellbeing in Welsh Gymnastics, please contact safeguarding@welshgymnastics.org

There are 3 ways in which you can raise concerns about your experiences in Gymnastics in Wales.

1. To the Club Safeguarding and Wellbeing Officer

The Safeguarding and Wellbeing officer is there to support the club in managing and investigating low level concerns that arise within the club where someone might have acted in a way that is not in keeping with the codes of conduct or membership rules.

2. Directly to Welsh Gymnastics

Concerns can be raised directly to Welsh Gymnastics where they are identified as being more serious or not able to be managed at club level.

3. Urgent / immediate or out of hours concerns

Where an immediate or serious concern is raised it should be directly reported to the police on 999 and then notified to Welsh Gymnastics. Your local authority will also have helplines for raising concerns about children or adults. Advice out of hours is also available from the NSPCC help line on 08088005000.
