Time to Listen (TTL) is a three hour interactive workshop, developed by the NSPCC’s Child Protection in Sport Unit (CPSU) which has been adapted to be specific to hockey. ALL Welfare Officers should attend this workshop to update their skills and knowledge of Safeguarding in regards to hockey. The certificate should be updated every three years in order to keep up with current legislation.
Time to Listen attendance by the CWO is a compulsory element of ClubMark accreditation.
The workshop is aimed at Club Welfare Officers (CWO) and people who have a designated welfare role in their County or Region . It is good practice for the CWO, or someone from the club/association, to attend this workshop especially if you have U18 players. It is recommended that a second Club Official is also trained as a deputy.
Cornwall Hockey Association are offering a 'BOGOF' on this workshop – candidates will need to book online and then the club claim the £20 back from CHA post workshop and via Treasurer Simon Fry.
The workshop is designed to give confidence and support in the CWO role and there will be plenty of opportunities to talk to other Welfare Officers to share experiences and good practice. For further details please use this link to the England Hockey website. The cost is £20 per delegate.
