This is the latest version of the Society's Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy. It is uses the Rugby Football Union's (RFU's) Safeguarding Children Policy as a framework.
The Policy regulates all of the Society’s activities in relation to officiating at matches involving players under the age of 18 and managing its young (under 18 years old) Match Officials. All members of the Society who participate in these activities (e.g. officiating, appointing and mentoring) must adhere to the Policy.
