Do
- Shower thoroughly with soap before entering the pool
- Use the toilet facilities before your swim and remember to wash your hands thoroughly with soap
- Make sure babies and toddlers are wearing tight-fitting waterproof baby trunks while swimming rather than nappies
Don’t
- Swim if you’ve eaten a meal within the last two hours

- Swim if you have suffered from food poisoning or diarrhoea in the last 14 days
