Council offers free swim nappies to keep popular facility clean and safe

Free swimming nappies will be available for children at the popular Bluewater Lagoon.

Council has recorded at least six faecal incidents since the facility re-opened in late September following the annual shutdown.

Each incident forces the facility to close for several hours, which spoils the fun for others at the Lagoon.

The clean up after an event can cost ratepayers thousands of dollars.

The free nappies will be available for several weeks.

It’s strongly recommended that children aged three and under, or those still toilet training, make use of the nappies to prevent accidents and closures.
