Unconscious bias in sport and physical activity

Join us for our latest webinar, ‘Unconscious bias in sport and physical activity’.

Ineke Houtenbos, NSPCC Senior Trainer explores the topic of unconscious bias; moving from the history of where bias towards people of colour has come from in our country, through what it means and how it impacts our perspectives and decision making, as well as what we can do to actively be more aware of our own bias.

The webinar has been separated into three parts.

Part 3 – impact and next actions
