Following a recent incident when a swimmer was not collected at the end of a session, the Club would like to remind parents and carers that they must collect their child at the end of a session, as the Club's responsibility to the swimmer ends at that point.

If you are going to be unavoidably late collecting your child, please telephone the Leisure Centre to let them know:

Alfreton Leisure Centre 01773 523325

Ripley Leisure Centre 01773 514727

Please note that swimmers MUST wait INSIDE the Leisure Centre until they see the person fetching them has arrived.

It is NOT acceptable for swimmers to wait outside to be collected, especially on dark nights.

In the event that your child is not collected within a reasonable time, the Club’s child protection policy requires us to notify Social Services and the Police, which is obviously something we are keen to avoid.

Thank you for your co-operation

Current child protection legislation demands that anyone wishing to use photographic equipment – including mobile phones – must obtain permission from the leisure centre.

Anyone failing to obtain permission will be asked to leave and may be reported to the leisure centre and/or the police. Previous actions of this nature have resulted in prosecution.

R.A.S.C.A.L.S. have no wish to be kill-joys but we have to respect the law and also the leisure centres' own rules. Most importantly of all, we must put the safety and comfort of all the children first.
