Welcome to Part 1 of our dedicated series all about Online Safety for the Sport and Physical Activity sector.
(Recorded under the name The CPSU.)
In this first podcast episode, Liza Ware, one of our NSPCC Sport Senior Consultants, talks about how we can keep children and young people safe on social media and online platforms with fellow colleagues from the NSPCC online safety team.
With the increasing role of social media in daily life, it's important that clubs, organisations and activity providers understand what to look for in a social media app or platform as well as the policies that need to be in place to protect young people and children.
This podcast was originally recorded in May 2020 but has been repurposed for use in November 2024.
Liza and her guests discuss:
- what should sport and physical activity organisations look for in a social media app or online platform?
- the importance of social media policies
- safer recruitment and restricted access to platforms
Featuring:
- Helen Westerman – Host, NSPCC
- Liza Ware – NSPCC Sport Senior Consultant
- Laura Randall – NSPCC Online Safety Strategy Team
