Keeping Your Child Safe in Sport 2025

Last updated: 11 Apr 2025

Keeping Your Child Safe in Sport is a national, year-round campaign which aims to raise awareness of the important role parents and carers play in keeping their child safe in sport

Alongside the year-round campaign, a focus week takes place during the first week of October to highlight the campaign and launch new resources and guidance.

For 2025, Keeping Your Child Safe in Sport week will be taking place from 6 to 12 October 2025. 

This year, it's all about inspiring positive parents, with an opportunity for you to learn about ways to encourage and support your children in the best way possible. Help them to fulfil their sporting potential, enjoy their activity and keep their safer. 

Sport is safest when everyone plays their role! We also want to bring the sporting community together, create an open and inclusive culture where you feel able to speak up and raise any questions or concerns with your child's club or organisation.

History of the campaign

We started our Keeping Your Child Safe in Sport campaign in October 2016 (previously known as Parents in Sport Week). Over the years we have had a number of different key messages, but the central one will always be how parents and carers can support their children in sport and how to keep them safe.
