Health and Safety…

It is the policy of Waddecar Scout Activity Centre to promote a culture where risk to health and safety is minimised and managed, so far as is reasonably practicable, with the aim to prevent serious harm to any employee, visitor or contractor, or to the environment.

Policies and Procedures are reviewed periodically and Waddecar is committed to staying up to date with changes in law, guidelines and industry practise, and follows The Scout Association’s Policy, Organisation and Rules which you can find here The Scouts POR
