Welfare

AT HELLINGLY HOUNDDOGS, WE ARE COMMITTED TO OUR RESPONSIBILITIES IN SAFEGUARDING AND THE WELFARE OF ALL OUR YOUNG MEMBERS.

At Hellingly HoundDogs Youth American Football club we take safeguarding and welfare very seriously.  Our club welfare officer, who has attended safeguarding courses, is your primary contact for any concern you may have, as a parent, carer or player. Our club’s main aim to ensure everyone, no matter of gender, race, sexuality, ability or religion have the right to train and play in a safe and respectful environment.

Our club Welfare Officer is Heidi Baker-Sells. You can contact Heidi via the club’s email  hounddogswelfare@hotmail.com.
