Welfare Officer - Seirian SouthgateBASSouthgate

Blue Arrows archery and Archery GB are committed to providing an environment that is safe, welcoming and friendly for children, teenagers and all adults to enjoy the sport of target archery.  

A welcoming environment is one where children are asked for, and are able to offer their views and opinions and feel confident and safe in doing so, where children feel able to share concerns, and where everyone feels able to challenge poor practice or behavior.  The Club Welfare Officer is vital to this and is a key member of the club.  The Welfare Officer role is independent of the committee and works on behalf of all members.

Our Club Welfare Officer is Seirian Southgate. She is responsible for dealing with any child or adult related issue where a situation concerning the welfare of a child has been raised either by the child or by another club member.

Should you have any concerns that you feel the welfare office can assist you with then contact her at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or see her on a Thursday night.

 

Sarah HarveyCommittee Member - Sarah Harvey

Sarah is a former treasurer and stayed on the committee as an extra pair of hands.  It takes a lot of time to run all the events and competitions the Blue Arrows provide during the year, not to mention the administration that goes with it. More the merrier, but also useful to have a junior committee member to give all the actions the rest of the committee didn't want!
