Welfare Officer Training (Time To Listen)
Swim England has linked up with the NSPCC and is accredited to deliver the Time to Listen module, which is aimed at Club Welfare Officers. The Time to Listen programme provides the opportunity to acquire key knowledge necessary for the role and responsibilities of a CWO, to adopt a child-focused approach to safeguarding and to learn about the action/s which should be taken should any incident occur. You must have completed a Safeguarding & Protecting Children workshop to attend the workshop. You must be 18+ to attend.
The Swim England Time to Listen course is run for Welfare Officers at no cost to candidates, however, there is a cost to the region. Unfortunately, we have recently had a number of last minute cancellations or no-shows, and despite having a large reserves list, the lack of notice has meant places could not be filled. Due to this we have implemented a new booking policy that outlines how our bookings work, our cancellation policy and our non-attendance policy. Booking Policy
