Often overlooked in reports of abuse within sports, the voices of those who have endured such experiences are crucial.
Trigger Warning - This film is based on a true story and explores themes of abuse and trauma, which some viewers may find distressing.
The film highlights numerous missed opportunities for intervention that had devastating lifelong consequences. It delves into the power of grooming and underscores the need for greater support and education for parents, teachers, coaches, and friends to recognise signs of abuse and understand safeguarding. Not being believed and being made to feel at fault can result in unimaginable trauma for victims.
This film can be a valuable resource for safeguarding training, addressing critical points to help make sports spaces safer. The central message is clear: when a child, young person, or adult discloses abuse, believe them. Professional curiosity is essential.
