Hello, my name is Paul Harris and I am the Welfare Officer at Waltham St Lawrence Cricket Club.

My role is to ensure that measures are put into place to protect all young members and allow them to enjoy themselves in a safe environment and to develop their cricket.

I make sure that myself and my coaching team are fully qualified to ECB standards and that we are CRB checked. In addition, as a club we have fully embraced the English Cricket Board Safe Hands Policy.

I also attend relevant courses on Safeguarding so at to keep me up to date on all matters and to allow me to implement processes that will embed a culture of safety and protection at Waltham St Lawrence CC.

Before each season I will call a meeting of all young players and their parents so that I can talk through arrangements for training and matches as well as allowing time for questions.

If you wish to speak to me about any of these matters please don't hesitate to call me on 07985527466 or alternatively you can send me an email: youthcoach@walthamstlawrencecc.co.uk
