Safeguarding and Protecting People

Learn how to create an environment where children, young people and vulnerable adults feel safe

UK Coaching is here to inspire and support coaches to deliver great coaching through best practice, training, research and industry standards across sports, communities and national governing bodies.

For over 20 years UK Coaching have worked with the NSPCC and CPSU to set the right standards and raise awareness among coaches of how to recognise and respond to matters of safeguarding children and adults at risk.

This page gives you an overview of our most popular Safeguarding courses and resources, which includes our popular and well-established Safeguarding and Protecting Children Workshop and Online Classroom.
