Welfare
Please note we are all responsible for our own and each other’s welfare but in essence and as required by England Athletics, Almost Athletes has two Welfare Officers:
Fi Barnes
Dave McGrath
They share the tasks of:
- Ensuring your Welfare is key within your club membership
- Reporting and managing incidents
- Liaising with and supporting our Leaders and Coaches
- Managing/creating/updating our policy and procedures
- Organising and providing first aid training
- Taking and managing complaints or concerns
- Sharing Welfare concerns and subsequent ongoing needs with the Committee
You can find Fi coaching on a Thursday and also at our Wednesday social runs, and Dave each Wednesday night hosting our club’s social run. Both are contactable privately there. Otherwise please do feel free to share any Welfare issues with them remotely: welfareofficer@almostathletes.co.uk
