Here at Stafford and Stone we take everyone’s welfare very seriously. In these testing times we wanted to have a resource available for everyone to access the type of support they might need. Our coaching team have all taken safeguarding training, along with many of our senior management team. We also have two safeguarding officers, so if you have any issues or concerns please be aware that you can speak to your coach or contact the welfare officers. Please do not hesitate to speak to someone if you have any concerns. All correspondence is strictly confidential.
