Online film to help sports clubs protect children from abuse
The NSPCC has produced an online film - ‘Play Sport Stay Safe’. The film is free to view on the NSPCC’s Child Protection in Sport Unit (CPSU) website
The film shows fifteen different scenarios set in sports clubs. They include best practice examples of how to handle concerns about physical abuse, sexual abuse, bullying, disability discrimination and racial discrimination of children.
The films can be viewed at the CPSU website.
