Wavepower Statement 2024 updated 08.10.2024

Wavepower is Swim England’s safeguarding policy and procedures document.
Its aim is to ensure everyone is able to enjoy our sports and aquatic activity in a safe, positive and enjoyable environment in line with current legislation, regulations and guidance.
This is part of Swim England’s commitment to create a culture in our sports and activities which makes everyone feel protected, included and welcomed – and that the safety, welfare and wellbeing of all participants is ingrained throughout our affiliated clubs and organisations.
It is mandatory for all Swim England affiliated clubs and organisations to adopt Wavepower 2024. This means that all members of Guildford City must abide by Wavepower 2024.
We have written our own policies and Codes of Conduct in order to ensure they are relevant for our members which include all the Wavepower elements. These are available in the Swim Manager document Library. For those aged under 18 Swim Manager will be accessible via a parent.
