Cardiff City FC Community Foundation is committed to safeguarding the welfare of children, young people, and adults at risk who engage in Foundation organised activities.
Whether engaging in activities at the Stadium, the House of Sport, or out in the community, the Community Foundation will strive to keep children, young people, and adults at risk safe and free from harm.
The Community Foundation takes its responsibilities seriously in this area and we are committed to:
• Getting the right people involved through safe recruitment and training.
• Creating a safe environment for all visitors, participants, and staff.
• Having and promoting clear systems to deal with any issues or concerns.
