About Child Protection in Sport Unit Volunteering

Our Safe in Sport Event Volunteers attend events in their local area and help children, young people and their families understand what safe sport and physical activity looks like and what to do if they have concerns.

You will mingle and chat with participants and spectators, share key messages and our bank of resources. You will promote safeguarding as everyone’s responsibility and empower those with worries to speak out.

You will get to work with others who share your values and are committed to making a difference. Shifts vary but are generally around 4-5 hours.

Our Insights Volunteers do vital work helping us to measure safeguarding culture in sports organisations. They work remotely and flexibly from home and conduct web-based research and other tasks. This insight means that we can better direct our support and services to improve safeguarding culture for children and young people who participate in sport at all levels.
