LimeCulture is proud to have been invited by the prestigious rowing establishment, Leander Club, to deliver our Safer Culture Integrity Training for Athletes.
Leander Club recognise that a strong sporting culture is not solely defined by performance but by the values and behaviours that underpin it. Through delivery of our Integrity Training for Athletes, LimeCulture was able to raise awareness and equip the Leander Club athletes with the knowledge and skills to prevent and respond to inappropriate behaviours in their sport. This face-to-face, interactive training provided a vital opportunity to discuss key issues in a supportive and engaging environment.
About LimeCulture’s Safer Cultures Integrity Training for Athletes
Our ground-breaking training is suitable for sports organisations and teams of all sizes. The workshops are designed to empower athletes by promoting healthy relationships, mutual respect, and personal responsibility. Through scenario-based activities and discussions, participants explore:

- Consent, boundaries, and acceptable behaviours.
- The influence of power and popularity on relationships and team culture.
