From Recommendations to Action - Embedding Safeguarding Learning Into Practice #SaferCultureSaferSport

Joane Pell chats with Paul Stephenson, a Senior Consultant at the Child Protection in Sport Unit (CPSU).
In May 2022, Paul hosted an online seminar as part of The Ann Craft Trust #SaferCultureSaferSport campaign: "From Recommendations to Action - Embedding Safeguarding Learning Into Practice."
The seminar focused on two main areas. First, it explored how we can recognise safeguarding lessons in our organsiations. Next, it discussed how we can take these lessons one step further, and embed them into everyday practice.
In this podcast, Joanne and Pell talk about the key takeaways from this seminar. And though Paul's background is in safeguarding children and young people, these lessons are just as relevant if you're working with adults.
