Safeguarding

Nottingham Forest Football Club is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults at risk and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

We recognise that everyone within the Club has a duty of care to safeguard the welfare of children, young people and adults at risk, creating a safe and inclusive environment that protects them from harm.

While safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, the Club has a dedicated Safeguarding Team in place who can provide advice and who hold responsibility for leading the response to safeguarding concerns.
