There are 3 ways in which you can raise concerns about your experiences in Gymnastics in Wales.

The Safeguarding and Wellbeing officer is there to support the club in managing and investigating low level concerns that arise within the club where someone might have acted in a way that is not in keeping with the codes of conduct or membership rules.
2.Directly to Welsh Gymnastics
Concerns can be raised directly to Welsh Gymnastics where they are identified as being more serious or not able to be managed at club level.
3.Urgent / immediate or out of hours concerns
Where an immediate or serious concern is raised it should be directly reported to the police on 999 and then notified to Welsh Gymnastics. Your local authority will also have helplines for raising concerns about children or adults. Advice out of hours is also available from the NSPCC help line on 08088005000.
