Trinity Martial Arts & Self Defence Awarded the Sport England Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts
Did you know that not all martial arts clubs are recognised under the Sport England Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts?
That is why we are proud to share that Trinity Martial Arts & Self Defence has recently been awarded the Sport England Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts.
For parents, carers, and adult students looking for martial arts in Telford, this is an important recognition. It shows that our club has demonstrated and maintained recognised safeguarding standards within martial arts instruction.
At Trinity Martial Arts & Self Defence, safeguarding is not something we treat as a box-ticking exercise. It is part of how we run the club, how we teach, and how we look after every student who trains with us.
What is the Sport England Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts?
The Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts is a nationally recognised scheme designed to help identify clubs and providers in England that have reached and maintained good safeguarding standards.
It was created to help parents and carers make informed decisions when choosing a martial arts club for their child, while also encouraging clubs to uphold clear, responsible, and consistent safeguarding practice.
In simple terms, it gives families extra reassurance that a club takes student welfare seriously.
Why this matters for families in Telford
Choosing a martial arts club is about more than class times, uniforms, or what style is being taught. For many parents, one of the biggest questions is whether their child will be learning in a safe, professional, and well-run environment.
That is exactly why this recognition matters.
Being awarded the Sport England Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts means that Trinity Martial Arts & Self Defence has met recognised standards in this area. It reflects the importance we place on safeguarding, student welfare, professionalism, and responsible club management.
For local families searching for:

What safeguarding means at Trinity Martial Arts & Self Defence
Safeguarding is about creating an environment where children, young people, and adults can train safely, confidently, and with the right support in place.
At Trinity Martial Arts & Self Defence, that means building a club culture where professionalism, clear boundaries, respect, and student wellbeing all matter.
It also means making sure the club is run in a way that gives parents confidence and helps students feel secure, supported, and welcome.
For us, safeguarding connects directly with the kind of martial arts school we want to be.
We are not a sport-focused competition club. Our programmes are built around practical martial arts, real-world self-defence, personal safety awareness, confidence, discipline, and character development. That kind of training only works properly when students are learning in the right environment.
A reassurance for parents considering classes
If you are a parent thinking about martial arts classes for your child, this recognition is designed to help you make a more informed choice.
Whether your child is joining our Foundation Programme for ages 5 - 7, our Junior Self-Defence classes for ages 8 - 13, or you are looking at training options for teens and adults, our aim is the same - to provide high-quality martial arts instruction in a safe, structured, and supportive setting.
That matters not only for physical training, but also for confidence, focus, personal development, and long-term enjoyment.
A proud milestone for Trinity Martial Arts & Self Defence
This award is something we are genuinely proud of because it reflects the standards we believe a modern martial arts school should uphold.
Families in Telford should not have to guess whether a club takes safeguarding seriously. They should be able to see clear evidence that it does.
The Sport England Safeguarding Code in Martial Arts helps provide that reassurance, and we are pleased that Trinity Martial Arts & Self Defence has now been recognised accordingly.
