The FSA - Building a Culture of Trust in Sport

Tuesday, March 22, 2022 • Duration 21:47

Catherine Sykes talks to David Rose, Deputy CEO of The Football Supporters' Association (FSA).

David talks about how the FSA is working to develop policies and procedures to safeguard adults in their organisation.

He discusses how important it is to listen to the voices of people who use services, as this helps clubs and organisations truly meet their needs.

David also shares some of his methods for engaging with FSA members. He stresses that supporters are the lifeblood of football, so it's vital that we create a culture of trust in which nobody's ever afraid to speak out.

It can be too easy to ignore problems. So the trick is to make it even easier to act on problems.

Finally, David shares some advice for any sport and activity organisations starting on safeguarding journey: Don't fear it! Because if you start worrying, you might put it off, and it might never happen.

David concludes that safeguarding is not as daunting or complicated as it seems, and there's loads of help out there if you need it.

Domestic Abuse in Sport - Safeguarding Matters

Wednesday, November 24, 2021 • Duration 50:21

Nicola and Ruth chat with Rosalind Porter, Director of Women and Girls Cricket at Oxford Cricket Club, and her two daughters, Jenny and Eloise.

The podcast looks at domestic abuse and coercive control. If you've been affected by any of the issues we discuss, please remember that help and support is there if you need it.

Rosalind, Jenny and Eloise's lives have been shaped by their involvement in cricket.

Rosalind's ex-husband was passionate about cricket, and the whole family immersed themselves in it. Cricket offered them a chance to do things as a family that they would not normally be able to do due to the domestic abuse and coercive control they experienced.

Cricket also provided a safe space for Rosalind, who found friendship with someone who was later able to give some support.

This is an exploration of how sport clubs and organisations can support people who are experiencing domestic abuse and coercive control - whether they're children or adults.
