Safeguarding

Roberts Brittain works with academy and young players under 18 and their families. Their safety and welfare come first in everything we do with them.

Designated safeguarding lead

Our designated safeguarding lead is Steven Yardley. Contact him through info@robertsbrittain.co.uk or 0115 666 7034.

How we work with young players

• A parent or guardian signs our terms with any player under 18, and our advice is copied to them.
• We meet young players with a parent or guardian present, or by video call with a parent or guardian able to join.
• We do not contact young players through personal social media accounts.

If we have a concern

If anything we see or hear suggests a child or an adult at risk may be harmed, the safeguarding lead will act on it the same day. That may mean telling the club or governing body's safeguarding officer, children's social care or the police. In an emergency we call 999.

A concern about a young person's safety overrides confidentiality. We will tell the family what we are doing unless that would put the young person at greater risk.

Raising a concern with us

Anyone can raise a safeguarding concern about our work by contacting the safeguarding lead. The NSPCC helpline on 0808 800 5000 and Childline on 0800 1111 are also available.
