You will be issued with a whistle to blow in emergencies ONLY. This will alert the Wave Leader and other Staff. All teams should then be removed from the area, asked not to use social media or to speak to the media out of respect for those concerned. Use your time with young people wisely and encourage continuation of the programme.
