Safeguarding
At CDC, the wellbeing of all club members is our utmost priority.
​
We approach ski racing with a 'fun first' mentality - of course ski racing is about performance, development and results - but for us, the most important thing is that our athletes have fun doing what they love - and that they remain safe while doing so.
​
That's why all of our staff undergo thorough safeguarding training on a regular basis to ensure they understand how to maintain the safety and wellbeing of all members of our club.
​
Please see below for more information on Safeguarding, including links to our Safeguarding policy, how to report a concern and designated Safeguarding contacts.

It is not your responsibility to decide whether a child or adult has been abused, but it is your responsibility to report any concerns appropriately.
For children, you have a legal duty of care to pass on the concern appropriately with or without their permission, or the permission of their parents.
For an adult, you would usually only do so with their consent, but you should still inform the Club Welfare Officer as there are times they may need to report without consent.
If you think a child or adult is in immediate danger, call the police or emergency services on 999.
To report a concern, please click the 'report a concern' button or email Sally with the heading 'Safeguarding Concern' and mark as important. Sally will get back to you to discuss the appropriate steps that need to be taken.
