By working under the guidance of our Safeguarding Policies our masters, members, subscribers, parents and legal guardians of juvenile members, visitors and hunt employees (participants) working with our young people, throughout the CGH, seek to create a safe environment for young people to grow and develop within sport.
The CGH Child Safeguarding Statement is available online in Draft format – we would appreciate any input or comments
