NSPCC Sport: new name, same mission

13-07-2026

The NSPCC’s Child Protection in Sport Unit (CPSU) this week celebrated 25 years of safeguarding children in sport with a name change to NSPCC Sport, creating a clearer, more recognisable identity.

Children’s sport should be exciting, fulfilling and fun. But most of all, it should be safe. The goal at NSPCC Sport is to make it so.

NSPCC Sport believes in building a caring, inclusive culture where children and young people can thrive and enjoy themselves by discovering all kinds of sports and physical activities — whatever their level or ability.

They support, advise and train sports bodies, physical activity providers and leisure operators, as well as parents and carers, because safeguarding in sport is a team effort.
