Wales Golf is committed to supporting its Golfers, Coaches and Support Staff to manage their mental health through appropriate education strategies and an effective referral process.
Our first aim with this Code of Practice is to set out the overall responsibilities of all those engaged in this support. It is not intended to provide comprehensive details of the day to day processes associated with this support.
Our second aim is to ensure that the highest standard of respect, empathy, responsibility and integrity are demonstrated by all members of Wales Golf when supporting the mental health of others.
The Code of Practice can be found on the link below and will provide further information.
