Stroud District Council

Kapers - Child Safety

Stroud District Council recognises that the welfare of children is paramount and that we have a duty of care when children are in our charge. Stroud District Council will do everything to ensure that, whilst on any activity organised by the Facilities and Sports Development department, children will be well supervised.

We will do this by:

  • All staff are carefully selected, trained and supervised.
  • All staff are CRB checked.
  • All parents/guardians and children will have access to information about what we do and what they can expect from the play scheme.
  • That all parents/guardians and children know how to voice their concerns or complain if there is anything they are not happy about.
  • All staff will be trained in child protection and will have clear policies and procedures to follow
  • All sites are risk assessed and all activities are planned to make them as safe as possible
  • All staff will wear branded clothing making them easily identifiable
