Child Welfare Information

Putteridge Swimming Club is committed to providing a friendly, caring and safe environment for all its members. We believe that all our members should enjoy swimming in an environment free from the fear of discrimination, intimidation, harassment, bullying and abuse.

I am often at the pool on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings and Saturday mornings. If there is something that you are unhappy or worried about please tell me, your coach or an adult that you can trust.

Alternatively you can e-mail me LORRAINE (link to e-mail address here)

If you don’t feel able to talk to anyone at the club there are other people who you can talk to. All these numbers are Freephone numbers, which means that it won’t cost you anything to call from either a house or public phone and they won’t show up on a land line itemised bill.
