In response to the launch of the Swim England 2023, 10 year strategy, Access Aquatics, the region has been working to ensure that we are upholding our own vision, misson and key principles whilst supporting the objective of the national governing body.
Vision : Swimming for All
Mission: A region where clubs, athletes and volunteers from all communities can flourish through participation in aquatic sport
Key Principles:
- Creating an inclusive, supportive and safe environment for all our members is at the core of what we do.
- Ensuring good quality governance through our constitution and committees aligned with Swim England.
- Ensuring prudent and responsible investment to support the development of all aquatic disciplines throughout the Region.
- Striving to deliver opportunities for athletes of all ages, ethnicities and talent.
- Continuously developing and acknowledging the contribution of a diverse workforce that is representative of the communities it serves.
- Communicating in a timely, relevant and responsible manner.
Following the release of the listening report and news that Swim England will be updating their strategy this year we have conducted a regional stakeholder consultation day. Regional board members, county, discipline and regional sub group representatives attended an afternoon session on the 13th June 2024. The associated presentations and key findings can be viewed below;
