Welsh Cycling recognises the need for a “Whistle Blowing Policy” in line with the Public Interest Disclosure Act 1998 (PIDA).

Welsh Cycling, with British Cycling, will fully support any individual who raises concern for the sake of a child and will protect those who “whistle blow”. It is difficult to raise a concern over a fellow colleague or volunteer, but we encourage you to talk to your designated officer if you become aware of anything that makes you feel uncomfortable, such as:

  • Trips and visits with young people
  • Managing challenging behaviour
  • Physical contact and young people in sport
