ECB Safeguarding
As we continue to return to play we have spoken to our provider and have now switched this functionality back on for all club welfare officers in the system. This will go live on Tuesday 14th July 2020.
Please see the attached guidance which you can share with your clubs and will be hosted on our website.
We have made it clear in the guidance that those Club Welfare Officers who feel it’s not appropriate to complete the verification process at this time to contact there CCB’s or ECB DBS.
We would advise CCB’s to signpost them to others in their local community, normally there are a sufficient numbers of verifiers in a person’s locality to meet the need. If there is no one available then please email our team on dbs@ecb.co.uk where we will look to provide further support on a case by case basis.
At this time it also means that video identification will be suspended as we need to meet a strict audit requirements for this process.
We have made this decision to support CCBs/clubs in returning to play and the guidance allows us to mitigate risk to complete the task.
Any further questions please feel free to contact r.knowles@yorkshirecb.com
