Policy on Photos
Withington Child Contact Centre allows photos to be taken. Any photography must respect the privacy of the other families using the centre. At no time may a member of another family (adults or children) be in the frame.
For this reason, if a Parent wishes to take a photo we ask that
-
The Parent first informs a volunteer that he/she wishes to take a photo
-
The Parent takes the photo in such a way that
-
No member of another family is in the frame
-
It is obvious to the volunteer that no member of another family is in the frame
-
-
The volunteer can assist with this if necessary
-
Video photography is not allowed since it is unlikely that a video of a child moving about the contact hall will not include Parents or children from other families. Even a video of a child seated and playing still has the possibility of another Parent or child running into the background shot.
-
Photos taken at the centre should not be placed on social media.
