The Independent Review of Sexual Abuse in Scottish Football
WOULD LIKE TO HEAR FROM YOU!!

Following a number of allegations of non-recent child sexual abuse in Scottish Football the Scottish FA has commissioned an Independent Review to consider the lessons that can be learned from these events. The club will also assess whether current arrangements are good enough to ensure that children and young people taking part in football in Scotland are properly protected now and in future.
We want to make sure everyone participating in Scottish football gets the opportunity to give us their views and ideas about how things can be improved to make sure that such events will not happen again.

As someone playing a part in football through a local club we hope you can provide us with your views and suggestions ….......
• Are you aware if your Club has Safeguarding Policies and Procedures?
• Do you know where to find them and do you think they are helpful? If not, why not?
• Does your Club have someone who is responsible for Child Safeguarding/Wellbeing?
• Do you have any concerns regarding protecting children and young people from sexual abuse or exploitation in football?
• What examples of good practice does your club adopt in relation to protecting children and young people?
• Do you have any issues around PVG/Disclosure?
• What else do you think needs to be done to make sure that children and young people are not at risk of sexual abuse in football in Scotland?

We are keen to learn of your experiences or concerns and hope you will feel able to share any suggestions or issues with us either by email to admin@sfreview.co.uk , by writing to us at write to us at: SFA Independent Review Team, Gyleview House, Citibase, 3 Redheughs Rigg, South Gyle, Edinburgh, EH12 9DQ or by telephone on 0131 220 8104
We will of course treat information as confidential but if you need to know more about this please contact us and we will fully explain our confidentiality arrangements.
WHAT’S NEXT? Occasionally the Review Team may wish to explore some of the issues raised further and it would be helpful if you could let us know if you are happy to be contacted by the Review Team and, if so, provide your contact details.
MANY THANKS!!
