Our conference marked the 10th anniversary of the Child Protection in Sport Unit (CPSU) working in partnership with sport organisations to safeguard children.
Delegates enjoyed the opportunity to discuss key safeguarding achievements in the sport sector as well as the future direction of policy, and gained a clearer understanding of how multi-agency communication supports safeguarding.
We also launched our latest research findings:
