Local Yeovil martial arts school, Kuk Sool Won™ of Yeovil martial arts, is leading the charge in sports safeguarding, having successfully attained and retained the Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts “mark” for the past four years!

Achieving the Safeguarding Code, demonstrates Kuk Sool Won™ of Yeovil martial arts’ commitment to upholding its duty-of-care to the community and young people and recognises Kuk Sool Won™ of Yeovil martial arts as a martial arts provider that has reached and effectively maintained good safeguarding standards. The Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts has been created so that parents and carers can clearly identify a martial arts provider that have demonstrated that they have reached and maintained good safeguarding standards and can make informed decisions when selecting a martial arts school for their child.

Sue Harrison, Stakeholder Marketing at the Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts said:

“We are delighted to see that so many clubs, including Kuk Sool Won™ of Yeovil martial arts, have successfully attained the Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts.

“When making choices about martial arts schools, parents and carers can easily determine, and be reassured that martial arts schools in their local area are committed to safeguarding and upholding safe practices for their children if they display the Safeguarding Code ‘mark’.”

PKJN Stephen Runnacles, school owner at Kuk Sool Won™ of Yeovil martial arts says: “our priority for our martial arts students and their families is to provide a safe environment in which to train. We want to provide the best training and support and are delighted that our commitment and hard work has been recognised by achieving and retaining the mark in the Safeguarding Code for the past four years”.
