Canoeing Ireland are running a Children First Safeguarding course on 19th June 2019 open to all of our members. This particular date was picked to facilitate committee members who may need this course for the summer season abroad.

This workshop is for the benefit of all members involved in children’s sport in our Canoeing community (parents/guardians, instructors, committee members’, Children officers etc.).

It provides introductory information on codes of conduct, bullying, recruitment, etc. as well as child protection guidelines. By following the principles, policy and practical guidelines contained in the Code, sports leaders are playing their part in providing a safe and enjoyable environment in which children can learn and thrive.

This is a mandatory course for (a) any person responsible for managing staff and (b) staff working or volunteering with children in any capacity. Alternatively you can attend this course if you have completed this course in the past and need to refresh it
