SUMMARY:Safeguarding in sport
DESCRIPTION:Every day millions of people participate in sport; amateur and elite athletes\, coaches\, referees\, volunteers\, organisers and parents. For the most\, this is a fun and positive experience. And it is crucial that everyone involved in facilitating access to sports of all kinds\, at all levels\, works to ensure this ethos is integral and to keep everyone safe.\nWe all have a duty of care to ensure club safeguarding policies are relevant and being adhered to\, safeguarding teams are trained and can spot the signs of mental wellbeing\, understand positions of trust and recognise areas of risk. Perhaps\, safeguarding in sports has been given too little attention in the past\, but as we see in the media things are changing; with the recent success of ‘close the loop’ campaign\, Sheldon’s review into sexual abuse in football and the IICSA report bought out in June 2020 ‘Child sexual abuse in sports’. \nFrom the pro-coach or safeguarding lead for a large club or organisation\, to the weekend volunteer or parent on the poolside\, safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility and it is clear we need to do more to ensure sports are safe for all. \nThis event will be running virtually via Zoom. Joining details will be sent out to delegates 24-48hrs before the conference with clear instructions. \n  \n\n \nCONFERENCE PROGRAMME\n09:30 – 10:30 \nWelcome\n\nAileen Kane\, Director\, Sacpa\nAileen has a background in the education and charity sectors and works with government departments including Home Office\, DfE\, DIT\, MOD and FCO\, as well as local authorities and other agencies.
