To ensure that our commitment is clear and approachable we have a dedicated group of volunteers who provide guidance and support to the Club on equality, diversity, inclusivity and belonging.

If at any stage you have any concerns which you would like to raise which relate specifically to equality, diversity, inclusivity and belonging as opposed to welfare and safeguarding please contact any member of the group at inclusivity@oldloughtonians.co.uk and your concern will be addressed in confidence. All welfare and safeguarding issues should be raised with Cindy Falconer,  the club Welfare and Safeguarding Officer.
