This weekend will see football clubs unite to promote Play Safe – a national campaign to focus attention on the vital role that safeguarding plays across the national game.
The Play Safe campaign is endorsed by the NSPCC and supported by every level of the game, including the Premier League, EFL, Barclays Women’s Super League and Barclays Women’s Championship, and across grassroots.
LFE is proud to be supporting Play Safe on our website and social media channels – and also by continuing to both deliver safeguarding activities and ensure policy and practice amongst all stakeholders.
This year’s Play Safe weekend aims to create awareness among individuals of the vital safeguarding role they can play in football. ‘Everyone, everywhere, every time’ should have an understanding of safeguarding in football. Everyone should ‘watch, listen, talk and act’ if they have any safeguarding concerns.
If you have a safeguarding concern, or would like some advice, the person to contact at your football club is the Designated Safeguarding Officer.
