How can I raise a safeguarding concern?

If you have a concern that a child or adult may be at risk of harm, or being harmed, you should, without delay, contact:

  • your organisation or club welfare officer
  • your county or regional welfare officer (bottom of page)
  • Swim England National Safeguarding Team:

  • James Diamond, National Safeguarding Manager
  • Charlotte Colson-Hammond, National Safeguarding Case Manager

    Tel: 01509 640 700 (Option 1 for Swim England and then Option 3 for Safeguarding)

In an emergency

If you believe a child or adult has been harmed or may be at immediate risk of harm, and you are unable to contact your welfare officer or the Swim England safeguarding team please make immediate contact with an appropriate agency, such as:

  • The Police
  • Children’s Services
  • Local Authority Adult Safeguarding Team
  • Multi Agency Safeguarding Hub (MASH)
  • Local Authority Designated officer (LADO)
  • NSPCC Child Protection Helpline

Take the name and contact details of the person you have spoken to, plus the incident / referral reference number (if applicable) so you have a record of the advice they give.

Then report this to the club welfare officer and the Swim England safeguarding team the next working day.
