EWA Values: Integrity - Child Safeguarding

Child safeguarding in Equestrian WA is vital for ensuring a safe and supportive environment, preventing harm and abuse. By embedding child safety into our leadership, governance, and culture, we promote a trustworthy and ethical atmosphere. Empowering children to participate in decision-making and respecting their rights fosters their confidence and development, enhancing their engagement and lifelong involvement in the sport.

Involving families and communities in child safeguarding efforts strengthens our collective commitment to child safety and wellbeing. A child-friendly complaint and reporting process ensures that concerns are addressed effectively, focusing on the needs of children. Continuous education for staff and volunteers equips them with the skills to maintain safe physical and online environments. Our comprehensive policies and procedures reflect our dedication to creating a child-safe and inclusive organisation.
