Organisation profile

The Centre for Child Protection and Safeguarding in Sport (CPSS) is at the forefront of research on understanding and preventing abuse, exploitation, and maltreatment in sport, and promoting children’s/ athletes’ rights.
CPSS produces high-quality, cutting-edge research evidence that informs policy and practice. We work with many organisations and agencies – local, national, and international – from the sport, child protection, and coaching sectors as well as with current and former athletes, ‘survivors’ of violence and abuse in sport, and coaches and coach educators.  
CPSS staff have global reputations and a range of relevant expertise. We contribute to national and international research projects, enquiries, expert panels, and conferences, and deliver CPD training and expert consultancy services to the sport and safeguarding sectors.
