Swimline

We hope your time in swimming is happy, enjoyable and successful but if you do need to seek some advice the Swimline number is 0808 100 4001.

Swimline was launched for swimmers to raise concerns about themselves or other young people who they feel are not being treated properly by other club members, coaches or officers, who maybe feel bullied or made unhappy by the action of an adult or another young person. It is a freephone number that will not show on a phone bill.

When calling Swimline you will get through to an answerphone where you will be asked to leave a contact number which you can be called on that day or the following day by either the Swim England Child Safeguarding Team or a Swimliner. You will be called back, your concerns listened to, and they will discuss and agree a way forward with you. If you need to speak to someone immediately you can hold rather than leave a message and you will be put through to an NSPCC Childline counsellor.
