WELFARE
Brockenhurst Cricket Club is a safe, friendly & welcoming club.
We have policies and procedures in place to ensure our club is run safely. It is a mandatory requirement that every ECB affiliated club and organisation recruit, appoint and train a Club Safeguarding Officer.
This is essential to provide a “first point of contact” for everyone within the club and the ECB for safeguarding matters, and crucially, to ensure the club is adopting and implementing, the safeguarding activities necessary for it to fulfil its duty of care.
