SAFETY Safety of the children, in our eyes, is paramount to the tour, so we have put several procedures in place to ensure that both the parents and the children do not feel their safety is threatened throughout the tour. Hotel & Coach Company Audits We are currently undergoing an audit by the School Travel Forum, in order to get accredited by them, and part of this accreditation means that we have to audit every hotel and coach company we use to make sure that these are secure and nothing threatens the safety of the children. This takes in to considerations balconies, windows, carbon monoxide, ensuring all the allocated rooms are together, etc. Crisis Management In the unlikely event that someone gets injured, there s an accident or even a crisis, we have procedures in place, and our staff are trained to deal with any emergency. As part of this process, we have a duty manager on call 24/7 whilst a tour is taking place, so that if anything were to happen we have someone able to respond immediately, who can then contact the parents of the children back home. First Aid All of our Tour Representatives are first aid trained, and we make sure that there is someone at the games who can deal with any injuries
