Barking Road Runners aims to provide a safe and welcoming environment for all runners. The Club does not tolerate bullying, harassment or discrimination and expects all its members to treat other members as they would expect to be treated themselves. All Club coaches are DBS checked. We are affiliated with England Athletics and abide by their Welfare and Safeguarding policies. While welfare is the responsibility of everyone in the Club, we have a dedicated Welfare Officer, Dawn Curtis.

In cases of emergency or immediate danger, always call the Police on 999

Non-emergency concerns can be raised with the Police on 101
