Whyte Review: update on 19 commitments
Sport England and UK Sport, who jointly commissioned the Whyte Review to look into systemic abuse in gymnastics in Britain, have provided an update on the 19 policy commitments made in 2023.
These commitments aim to drive the highest standards of safeguarding, wellbeing and integrity in the governance, policy and culture of sport, so that everyone can have safe and enjoyable experiences.
One of the actions has been the national network of 63 local Sport Welfare Officers embedded within Active Partnerships to support national governing bodies of sport (NGBs) and clubs by promoting good practice and safe sport at a local level.
Two years on, Sport England and UK Sport are positive about what has been achieved but remain focused on what still needs to be delivered.
