Safeguarding

Safeguarding and Child Protection

The safety, wellbeing, and dignity of every young person are at the heart of our camp.

We are committed to providing a safe, non discriminatory and supportive international environment where all participants are treated with respect and protected from harm, abuse, neglect, exploitation, bullying, and discrimination.

Our safeguarding approach includes:

– Clear safeguarding policies and procedures for all staff and volunteers.
– Appropriate screening, recruitment, and training for adults working with young people.
– Clear standards of behaviour and professional boundaries.
– Safe supervision and risk management during activities, accommodation, travel, and free time.
– Accessible ways for participants to raise concerns or ask for help.
– Prompt and appropriate action when a safeguarding concern is identified or reported.
– Respect for privacy and confidentiality, in line with applicable safeguarding and data-protection requirements.

We encourage all participants to speak up if something does not feel right. Concerns will always be taken seriously and handled appropriately.

Our goal is simple: every young person should feel safe, respected, included, and able to enjoy their camp experience with confidence.
