Nude Family swim at Stoke Waterworld

Well all I know is that every year for the past 2/3 years a handful of vigilantes have turned up waving banners and spouting off that all naturists are paedohiles and nothing happens. Waterworld isn;t exactly the cleanest place in the world but there are cameras etc anywhere.

Naturist families tend to have naturism as a way of life. Their kids grow up with it.

A known one would likely have restrictions on being around kids at all.

I've no issue at all with adult naturism, or families doing as they wish in private.

But isn't there a problem with this sort of event that the children haven't - can't - give meaningful consent? No doubt the parents have innocent motives for their families attending but it is naive in the extreme to assume that applies to everyone.

The naturists membership policy needs to be that convicted pedophiles are expelled. On every of my neighbours was convicted of a historical offence. All local sports clubs expelled him as a member immediately on the verdict.

I'm still uneasy about the nude swims as I'm not convinced children are able to freely consent but that's a different problem.

They also need to restrict tickets to families.

Good luck in getting Mop Chaudry to change his mind. He's been working with naturists for years.

Robert Platts, defending, said Enright had joined British Naturism in July 2006, a month before the sex order came into force.*

The court heard that he was arrested after police attended his home in June 2008 and discovered he was a member of the British Naturism.

Further investigations revealed that he had been on outings with the group to Alton Towers and Waterworld in Stoke-on-Trent.

Why the fuck is it more important for a bunch of people to skinny-dip, than it is to prevent paedophiles leching at them?

Well, of NSPCC helped them in their safeguarding then we can sure it’s dodgy.

"We have a robust child and vulnerable adults safeguarding policy - it’s actually rather ignorant of the complainers to assume that we don’t. It was developed in conjunction with the NSPCC and is reviewed annually.

But as long as a paedophile, a known paedophile, registers as an official nudist, he can come in?

There's a Twitter reply from Peter Wanless saying this is fake news and not an appropriate or correct reference to us (the NSPCC). I can't get the screenshot to attach, not sure why.

No big deal.

These naturist swims have been happening for YEARS, at least since the 1980's. Before Waterworld they used to be held in the old Jubilee baths in Newcastle.

Is this true?

I saw it on twitter and it (the NSPCC involvement and their supposed tweets - something about not having time to focus on children because they were too busy focusing on lgb+...) didn’t seem right at all.

what does "in conjunction with" precisely mean and who does the reviewing?

Apparently it's not true that the NSPCC are supporting it.
