WHY SWIMMING So many fats love to swim but don’t always feel like it’s something they can participate in in the freeing way they should be able to. Here at Fat Club we LOVE swimming and we LOVE hanging out with fat people so, this was a no brainer for us. WHAT TO EXPECT Someone from Fat Club will be on hand to greet you and answer your questions. Please show your ticket to get access.Sessions are 45 mins only. Please turn up on time to make the most of the swimming and please leave the pool with plenty of time to get changed and leave the premises before our booking ends.You can then expect 45 mins where you can swim and splash about to your heart's content.All swimmers must abide by the swimming pool rules.WHO CAN COME This is a FAT ONLY SPACE*. We wanted to use this funding to make sure that fat people can have fun and feel the benefit of fat only spaces. We have complied access info in this doc, if you have any questions, please let us know. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uHK8HdvFqKzI7IIuNjKkHk7UnnL6S2wDmgHrwWGGETg/edit?usp=sharing For anyone that attends, we expect that you behave in line with our community guidelines: Fat Club is for people who identify as Fat - what counts as fat varies from culture to culture, meaning that different sized people may have similar experiences. However, we remind everyone that the experience of weight stigma increases with size and that larger fats may have experiences of oppression that differ from those in bodies closer to the social normsBe aware of your privilege - Try to understand how other experiences my differ from yours. For instance, smaller fat people should be aware of the way their experiences differ from larger fat people and consider their relative privilege in conversations and decision makingNo diet or intentional weight loss talk - We understand that you may choose to lose weight, however, you must not speak about dieting or intentional weight loss in Fat Club spaces. There may be occasions where people need to discuss feelings about unintentional weight loss, and in these circumstances the community will make a decision about how and where that might be heldNo numbers - weights and measurements, even where not discussed in a weight-loss context can be difficult for other people in the group. Clothe sizes are OK where the context is neutral, like asking for recommendations or at clothes swaps.Not everyone can, will, or wants to ‘love themselves’ or be ‘beautiful’ - please try to remember that not everyone values or welcomes appearance based compliments: ask permission first.Try your best not to f*ck other people up - we are all flawed, and we are learning. We accept that people will make mistakes. By trying to not f*ck each other up and keeping to the community expectations, we hope to minimise harm to each other. We expect people who f*ck up to listen to feedback.*Anyone who is needed to support a Fat person’s access to this event is welcome. We just ask that they understand they are here to support Fat access, not to participate and to be aware that this is a Fat First Space. WHO ARE FAT CLUB? Fat Club Brighton is a community of fats who are interested in the joy and liberation of fat people. We run free or low cost events for fats and friends of fats across Brighton and Hove.
