BEDFORDSHIRE COUNTY NETBALL ASSOCIATION
WELFARE & SAFEGUARDING
Bedfordshire County Netball Association (BCNA) is committed to working with our leagues to create and maintain a safe and positive environment for all young people to play netball.
It is vital that it is recognised that some children and young people may be more vulnerable than others of a similar age and some regretfully may encounter barriers to due many factors such as age, disability, sexual orientation, religion etc.
Everyone has a responsibility as the safety of young people is paramount.
