Children’s Rights and Wellbeing
“The responsibility to safeguard and promote the wellbeing and protection of a child or young person does not rest on one person. We are all responsible. The role of the Wellbeing & Protection Department at the Scottish FA is to ensure that Scottish Football is a safe and inclusive environment. We provide advice, guidance, education and support for staff/volunteers and it’s members to embed safeguarding standards throughout Scottish Football, empower children and young people and respond to concerns where a child or young person’s wellbeing or safety has been affected.”
