Welcome to the first edition of our Safeguarding Newsletter.
For those of you that I have not yet met, my name is Kerry Skidmore and I am the new Governance and Safeguarding Manager here at Welsh Shooting. This newsletter is designed to share updates about key events, resources, and tips to help keep everyone safe and supported. If you have any questions about Safeguarding, take a look on our Safeguarding website page or feel free to drop me an email and I am very happy to support.

NSPCC Keeping your Child Safe in Sport
This year’s Keeping Your Child Safe in SportCampaign runs 6-12 October 2025, and the NSPCC are asking sports parents to play their part and talk to their children about how they can bring out their best through positive actions and support.
You can support this year’s campaign by posting on social media, displaying posters or raising awareness in your Association or Club by talking to parents directly. You can access all the resources you need by clicking on the image and visiting the NSPCC website.
