EMD UK wants everyone to have a positive, safe and enjoyable experience when taking part in any group exercise activities. We strive to ensure that all staff, teachers, instructors and volunteers are clear on what is expected of them and that best practice is central to all activities.
EMD UK wants to ensure that adults are protected whilst exercising. EMD UK has developed their Adult Safeguarding Policy so that all involved know what processes and procedures to follow and who they can contact for help if they have any safeguarding concerns. You can download the policy below.
If you have a concern about an adult at risk, please contact an EMD UK Safeguarding Officer on 01403 266000 or safeguarding@emduk.org.
You can also contact your local authority or the police if you have urgent concerns.
With over 30 years’ experience, Ann Craft Trust is the go-to organisation for safeguarding adults.
They have a wide range of resources and training available on their website here.
The below resources from Ann Craft Trust have been made specifically for sole traders and small businesses to make writing your policies and procedures quick and easy.

We worked with Ann Craft Trust and the Child Protection in Sport Unit (CPSU) on a bespoke guide to safeguarding for group exercise instructors.
It includes an overview of everything you need to know for your fitness business, including links to additional support and learning.
