Andrea Thorley-Baines is the recently appointed Welfare Officer for BWFAC and as part of her remit she will be talking to all our Coaches, Officials and Volunteer Helpers about her role and also to ensure ourselves that all licences and Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) documentation is in place and up to date.
This is important because the Club is now re-accrediting for Clubmark and will be audited by a representative from England Athletics who will request sight of this information.
Finally, if anyone has any concerns related to the safeguarding or welfare of club members, Andrea is the initial point of contact for the club.
