Safeguarding

Creative Sport & Leisure continually strive to support all learners, whether children, young people or vulnerable adults. Vulnerability can refer to age, disabilities or illnesses. Safeguarding is a wider reaching term for ‘child protection’ and refers to promoting the protection of the welfare of children and shield them from harm. Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility.

Safeguarding is defined in ‘Working together to safeguard children’, issued by DfE as:

• Protecting children from maltreatment
• Preventing impairment of children’s health and development
• Ensuring that children grow up in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care
• Taking action to enable all children to have the best outcomes

Mental Health & Wellbeing

Our Mental Health and Wellbeing team sits across the group. They aim to support employees, clients, strategic partners, volunteers and learners through their 3 tiered support system (Information and Guidance, Training and Clinical Support).

B MINDFUL has a passion to educate individuals about mental health and promote new healthy behaviours and thought processes that will empower individuals to lead a healthier and more mindful life. We have a goal to breakdown barriers and challenge stigmas that surround mental health.

B MINDFUL offers a range of courses, workshops and sessions to suit the needs of the business, employees and learners. Services aim to raise awareness of mental health in society and within everyday contexts and the promotion of self awareness, empowerment, resilience and positive wellbeing.

We offer mental health first aid sessions for the individual, group, cohort or team. Our workshops will enable individuals to become aware of their own mental health and to develop skills which will support and promote good mental health and wellbeing in the workplace and within everyday life.

The team at B MINDFUL consists of highly qualified and experienced individuals that each share the same core values, who have first hand experience in dealing with mental health (in professional and personal contexts).
