Behaviour and Conduct

Ground Rules

In order to keep all young people safe at our groups, young people have devised a list of ground rules and ask that those who attend the group adhere to them. Breaching these will result in you being asked to leave or being refused entry to the group. Breaches will be addressed individually with the young person.

Our rules are:

  • Don’t bring with you unknown (to the group and/or staff) young people;
  • Avoid offensive language;
  • Respect others' belongings and opinions;
  • Respect all group members and staff;
  • Smoke only in designated areas; and
  • Do not attend under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

As a young person, if you have safeguarding concerns, are made aware or are worried about another young person, you must let staff know so they can provide appropriate support. As a young person, you're not expected to provide safeguarding support to other young people. Safeguarding risks can be made worse if appropriate support isn't in place, so you'll be doing the right thing letting staff know.
