Safeguarding & Respect Policy

At Nail It DIY, our workshops are designed to be safe, welcoming and empowering spaces for women to learn practical skills with confidence.

 

1. Respect & Inclusivity

    •    We ask all participants to treat one another with respect at all times.

    •    Discrimination, harassment or intimidating behaviour will not be tolerated.

    •    First names only are used during sessions unless participants choose to share more.

 

2. Privacy & Personal Information

    •    We only collect the personal details needed to manage bookings and communication (e.g. name and email address).

    •    Personal details will never be shared with third parties.

    •    Participants are never required to share personal information during a session.

 

3. Photography & Social Media

    •    We may take photos during workshops to help promote our sessions.

    •    Participants will always be asked for consent in advance and may opt out at any time.

    •    Where consent is not given, no identifying images will be used. We may instead use photos of hands-on activities, tools, or finished projects.

    •    Faces can be blurred or cropped out on request.

 

4. Safe Learning Environment

    •    All workshops are run by at least two facilitators.

    •    Sessions are delivered in accessible, community-based venues (never private homes).

    •    Safety briefings are included at the start of every workshop.

    •    All tools and materials are used under supervision, with clear guidance on safe practice.

    •    Nail It DIY holds full Public Liability Insurance for all workshops and activities.

 

5. Raising Concerns

    •    If a participant ever feels uncomfortable or unsafe, they are encouraged to speak privately to one of the facilitators.

    •    Any concerns will be taken seriously and addressed immediately.
