This gives you access to resources that will help you to make sure you have the necessary safety and safeguarding practices and policies in place. When you're confident you have everything, you can become a Certified Member, where we will check your documents, and on completion issue you with your Certified Member badge. After that, there is the option to become Accredited. This process takes a deeper dive into your business, and is the Gold Standard for children's activity providers.
