Child Protection and Volunteering Research

Sportscotland and Children 1st need your help! They have commissioned the Sport Industry Research Centre at Sheffield University to explore the opinions of club members, parents and volunteers towards child protection legislation and disclosure checking.

This research is important as it will allow sportscotland and Children 1st to appropriately support SGBs, clubs and volunteers in the lead up to, and following, the imminent legislative changes in child protection and disclosure checking.

The survey is aimed at club members, parents of junior members and volunteers It can be accessed electronically here: Survey link, and should take no more than 10 minutes to complete. The returns are completely anonymous and cannot be linked to the individual completing them, but we will enter all completed questionnaires into a draw and one club will win £200 of sports equipment as appropriate to them.

Should you wish to discuss the research further please contact Eilidh Nicolson on 0131 472 3218 or by email .
