Supporting Positive Outcomes
At Sport Birmingham, we believe that everyone deserves to be physically active in a way that works for them. Everyone should experience positive outcomes from being active, without negative impacts.

You can read our safeguarding policy which outlines our framework for ensuring safe practice here:
Sport Birmingham Safeguarding Policy v 2025.
Every place, every club, and every sport looks different. We celebrate this difference, and embrace that every experience is unique, as is what welfare looks like.
Are you a local sport or physical activity club who could do with some help improving your welfare and safeguarding?
