Rotary Great Britain & Ireland produces standard policy documents that clubs then adopt.
Darwen Rotary had adopted the following two safeguarding policies, and these guide our workings with both children and vulnerable adults.
Safeguarding Policy-Children March 2021.pdf
Safeguarding Policy-Vulnerable Adults March-2021.pdf
These will be reviewed and re-adopted each year.
The Club Safeguarding Officer (CSO) is Gilbert Riley. Contact via link below.
Any complaint or incident regarding safeguarding of either Children or Vulnerable Adults will be reported by the CSO to the Blackburn with Darwen Safeguarding Unit, in line with the Pan Lancashire Multi Agency Policy and Procedures.
more The Club Safeguarding Officer's rôle is laid out in the Rotary GB&I Safeguarding Guidance Manual. This is regularly reviewed and updated. Darwen Rotary will continue to follow the revised guidelines.
