If I have a safeguarding concern how do I report it?

Modified on Fri, 6 Feb at 1:31 PM

All youth clubs have a Club Welfare Officer who may be able to address any concerns within the club. Each youth league also has a Welfare Officer who can be contacted regarding any concerns you have in relation to safeguarding.


 Reporting Safeguarding concerns / incidents 


To report any instance where you consider a child, young person or adult at risk to have been harmed or be at imminent risk of harm, use the form. These are serious concerns/incidents where the concern is associated with football-related activity. 


You can also report any safeguarding concerns by contacting FA safeguarding on 0844 169 1863 or email Safeguarding@TheFA.com.


If you have a serious concern regarding a potential safeguarding issue and you feel it requires immediate attention please contact your local Police service or Children’s services:
NSPCC Hotline - 0800 800 5000
