Safeguarding in Sport

This introductory session, designed for sports clubs and community organisations involved in delivering physical activity, will:

• Provide information on safeguarding children and young people, and key terminology relevant to those working in sport and physical activity.
• Introduce the role of the Child Protection in Sport Unit (CPSU) and outline the support available to help you strengthen your safeguarding practices.
• Encourage you to reflect on how these principles apply to your sports club/organisation, and identify areas for improvement.

You’ll leave with practical questions and considerations to take back to your setting, helping to ensure the safety and welfare of all athletes and participants in your care.

Please note that registration information for this event will be shared with your local Sport Welfare Officers in the West Midlands. They may contact you for feedback on the session and share updates about future opportunities.
