Duty to Care goes beyond safeguarding. It’s about providing the appropriate support and care and delivering the best environment for participants to thrive. By embracing their Duty to Care, coaches can help ensure that the people they coach enjoy a great experience that encourages lifelong participation.
The ever more critical role of Duty to Care in coaching – brought into laser focus by the publication of The Whyte Review and its recommendations to better protect participants – has further galvanised our commitment to creating safer environments for everyone involved in sport and physical activity.
We have therefore introduced a fresh new face to our Duty to Care Toolkit. The upgrade will better ensure that coaches have the up-to-date resources and support they need to fulfil this crucial duty.
