Join us for an interactive Safeguarding and Protecting Children workshop, delivered by Kamilla Ovrevik (London Sport) in partnership with UK Coaching.

This session will support participants to better understand how to safeguard children and young people in sport and physical activity settings. It will explore what good coaching practice looks like, how to recognise safeguarding concerns, and how to respond appropriately to ensure the safety and wellbeing of young people.

Through practical examples, group discussions and interactive scenarios, participants will have the opportunity to reflect on real-life situations, share experiences, and build confidence in responding to safeguarding concerns.

In this session you will learn:

• How to safeguard children and young people effectively
• What good coaching practice looks like and how to apply it
• How to recognise signs of abuse, lower-level concerns and poor practice
• How to respond appropriately to safeguarding concerns
• How and where to report concerns about children and young people

Who should attend:

This session is suitable for sports coaches, club leaders, committee members, welfare officers, fitness providers, safeguarding leads, and anyone working with children and young people in sport or physical activity settings.

Delivered in partnership with UK Coaching, this workshop also provides 2 CIMSPA CPD points (valid for 12 months). Lunch will be provided.
