Mobile Phone Use - Reminder from Swim England

Reminder about Mobile Phone Use:

This week Swim England called an extra-ordinary meeting for Regional and County Welfare Officers due to a worrying and significant rise in the number of incidents of mobile phone use in changing rooms, taking indecent photos under or over changing cubicles since the start of the year.

It is a criminal offence to take, make, distribute (send), upload and/or possess any indecent image of a child (including those taken/possessed by other under 18-year-olds).

The use of mobile phones for any reason is STRICTLY PROHIBITED in changing rooms during Swim England regulated activities. It is important that all members understand the seriousness of this risk. We can all play a role in keeping our athletes safe. If you see anything of concern, please report it immediately to a lifeguard or duty manager.
