This safeguarding children toolbox talk template is designed for staff working in gyms, swimming pools and leisure centres. It outlines the legal duties, key hazards and practical steps to protect children from abuse, neglect and exploitation.
The talk references the Children Act 1989, the Care Act 2014, the Safeguarding Children and Vulnerable Adults Regulations 2018 and the Child Protection in Sport Unit (CPSU) standards, which set out clear expectations for safe recruitment, one‑to‑one contact and incident reporting in sport and fitness environments.
Each section includes a purpose, what the activity involves, why safeguarding matters, detailed do and don’t items and an important reminder.
Fully editable and shareable, this template helps organisations meet statutory safeguarding duties, demonstrate good practice to parents and regulators, and create a safe environment that encourages families to use the facilities confidently. The organisation regularly reviews and updates this talk to reflect changing legislation and best practice.
By using this toolbox talk, staff will be better equipped to recognise subtle signs of abuse, intervene safely, and support children and families effectively.
Compliant with the Children Act 1989, Care Act 2014, Safeguarding Children and Vulnerable Adults Regulations 2018 and the CPSU standards for child protection in sport.
