Everyone has a role to play in keeping children safe in sport. NSPCC's year-round campaign aims to support parents and carers to feel confident about playing their part.
This year they are focusing on building safer sporting communities for children by asking teams and clubs across the nation to bring their sporting community together by hosting a Team Huddle.
Keeping Your Child Safe in Sport (KYCSIS) awareness raising week is taking place 7 ‑ 11 October 2024.
