Safeguarding 7th February & 5th March

British Equestrian (BEF) and the ABRS+ consider the safety and enjoyment of young people whilst participating in any horse sport to be of paramount importance. The BEF and ABRS+ recognise that there is a duty of care towards young people and vulnerable adults. The BEF Safeguarding and Child Protection course has been designed to raise awareness of these issues within the equine industry as well as provide detailed guidance on what to do if certain situations arise.

We run online courses monthly so you can always make sure that you and your staff are up to date with Safeguarding qualifications. The next Courses are running Friday 7th February and Wednesday 5th March, head over to our Events section to get booked in.
