Swim England members urged to leave phones in their locker

An empowering new film has been commissioned by Swim England in a bid to prevent its teenage members falling foul of a key safeguarding policy change.

'Keep it in Your Locker' aims to raise awareness of a recently-introduced element in Wavepower which prohibits the use of a mobile phone or device in changing rooms during Swim England regulated activity.

It was brought in at the beginning of 2024 as part of a revised version of Swim England's safeguarding policy and procedures document to help protect members from instances of inappropriate photos or video footage being taken.
