Clean Sport Week, led by UK Anti-Doping, to take place 19–23 May

Clean Sport Week 2025: The Next Generation will take place from 19 to 23 May. This year’s theme highlights the importance of equipping young people with the knowledge and support to make informed decisions and take pride in competing clean. The initiative underscores the collective responsibility of the anti-doping community and elite sport sector in shaping a positive sporting environment for future generations.

The Week will begin with an in-person event at Manchester Metropolitan University on Monday 19 May. The programme includes two panel discussions:

  • Panel 1 features rising athletes sharing their personal experiences in sport, including Javier Bello (beach volleyball), Tom Burrow (rugby union), Annabel Amadin (athletics), Fay Henderson (curling), and Mel Nicholls (para-triathlon).
  • Panel 2 brings together sector leaders to explore the role of institutions in supporting clean sport, with speakers such as Jane Rumble (Chief Executive, UKAD), Eve Muirhead (Team GB Chef de Mission for Milano Cortina 2026), Kelly Sotherton (CEO, British Elite Athletes Association), Professor Jim McVeigh (researcher), and Dr Sasha Sutherland (Chief Executive, Caribbean Regional Anti-Doping Agency).

The in-person event is open to all and includes the panel sessions, a networking lunch, and a tour of the Manchester Institute of Sport. Spaces are limited, and advance registration is required. Please register here
