At Giffnock we apply safeguarding standards beyond the minimum requirements of our three governing bodies. We recognise the importance of providing all members with a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment in which to play, train and socialise. Where we get this right, members, young and old, are able to have fun and enjoy their club to its fullest potential.

Any member with a safeguarding concern is encouraged to speak to our Welfare Officer (CWPO), Daljeet Dagon. Please email welfare@giffnock-ltc.co.uk or call 07790473750. All safeguarding reports are treated in the strictest confidence and in accordance with relevant club policies.
Members should also know that all club coaches, bar staff and committee members are all trained in identifying safeguarding issues and will know what to do if approached by a member with a concern. The more trained eyes and ears we have at the club, the safer the environment we create for everyone.
