NSPCC Sport (formerly the CPSU)

Children’s sport should be exciting, fulfilling and fun. But most of all, it should be safe. The
goal at NSPCC Sport is to make it so.

NSPCC Sport believes in building a caring, inclusive culture where children and young
people can thrive and enjoy themselves by discovering all kinds of sports and physical
activities — whatever their level or ability.

They support, advise and train sports bodies, physical activity providers and leisure
operators, as well as parents and carers, because safeguarding in sport is a team effort.
