Child Safeguarding

Picture
The welfare and protection of children is paramount to everything that we do.  It is our responsibility to ensure that children’s early experiences in sporting and cultural activities are fun and positive, irrespective of their age, gender, ability or ethnic background.

Community Games has demonstrated its commitment to the welfare and protection of all children, by ensuring that all policies and procedures are in line with current best practice and with current legislation.  Our own Safeguarding Statement is available here.

All policies and procedures have been developed in accordance with the Irish Sports Council and the Sports Council for Northern Ireland’s Code of Ethics, and legislation from the Department of Justice and the Department of Children and Youth Affairs.


Code of Ethics Training and Child Protection in Awareness Training

Community Games recommends that all volunteers and staff working with children attend the Code of Ethics Training delivered by the Local Sports Partnerships in the Republic of Ireland or the Child Protection Awareness Training delivered by the Child Protection in Sport Unit of the NSPCC in Northern Ireland.  Occasionally we run these Sport Ireland certified courses ourselves via our Children's Officer - visit HERE to find out if there is one coming up.   

​For more information on either of these courses please click the links below:
