Health and Safety

We take pride in our Health and Safety record, and believe that this is one of the reasons 84% of our visitors return to stay at the Gwersyll time after time. Robust structures are already in place which ensure the safety of children, teachers and adults during their stay.

Below is an outline of our security systems:

• Qualified staff for activities. The Gwersyll has received 'Investors in People' status and has also won the title 'Employer of the Year' at the Cwlwm Busnes Ceredigion awards.
• Fire Safety. A fire drill is held as soon as possible after the children arrive at the Gwersyll. Rooms with visible fire alarms are provided for those with hearing impairments.
• First Aid - There are fully-qualified First Aid Officers on call 24 hours a day
• Designated First Aid Room and a place in which medicine is kept under lock
