Safeguarding Adults

Safeguarding Adults is a responsibility for everyone within rounders. Getting it right will ensure a wider participation in the sport and ensure safe access for everyone involved.

Safeguarding Adults in Sport and Activity is an Ann Craft Trust (ACT) project funded by Sport England, to develop best practice in safeguarding adults at risk. Through this, Rounders England,with support from ACT developed a separate ‘Safeguarding Adults’ policy.
