Child exploitation for sports clubs and organisations by the Children’s Society and Ivison Trust

This event has been organised by the Sport Welfare Officers from the active partnerships Rise, Active Cumbria, County Durham Sport, Tees Valley Sport and North Yorkshire Sport.

We’re grateful to be joined by The Children’s Society and Ivison Trust to speak to sports clubs and organisations about child exploitation. Across the country, young people are being manipulated, sexually abused, forced to launder money and deal drugs. Exploitation isn't obvious. But it happens everywhere. Phoebe from the Children’s Society will speak to us about how we can work together to spot the signs of child exploitation and how we can report and stop this. We’ll also be joined by Liz from the Ivison Trust to raise awareness of the fantastic work they do to support children and families affected by criminal and sexual exploitation.  

This one hour online webinar is for anyone involved in a sports club or organisation (including volunteers and parents/carers) and will be particularly useful for club welfare officers. The session will include:

• What child exploitation is

• How to spot signs of child exploitation

• How to report it

• Support for children and families affected by exploitation
