DELIVERY CENTRE POLICIES

It is the expectation of Paddle Cymru that the experience of our Learners and Providers will be positive and that you will be treated fairly and without discrimination. We recognise that this may not always be the case and set out below our appeals procedure.

Good Coaches ensure participants in paddlesport have positive experiences and are therefore more likely to continue in the sport and achieve their potential. Coaches should therefore ensure they demonstrate a high degree of honesty, integrity and competence at all levels.

Our goal is to give excellent service to all of our members, but we recognise that occasionally things do go wrong. We take all complaints we receive seriously and aim to resolve all of our members’ problems promptly. To ensure that we provide the kind of service you should expect of us, we welcome your feedback.
