JAKARTA - The victim of the Rotherham sex gang, Sammy Woodhouse, opposes the organizing of a naturist swimming held in Stoke-on-Trent, England.

The 35-year-old woman - who now campaigns against child sexual abuse - asked on social media why such an event was being held at Waterworld.

Launching Stoke Sentinel, Thursday, September 24, the event involving adults and children was organized by British Naturism at the Festival Park aqua park on Saturday.

This naked family swimming is likely to continue despite the COVID-19 restrictions. But the mother of two children called for the event to be canceled.

Writing on Twitter she said: "(I'm) really mad that people and @WaterWorldStoke are having a family nude day. What are you guys playing at?"

The tweet attracted hundreds of likes, comments, and retweets after being posted last night.

Absolutely furious that people and @WaterWorldStoke are holding a family nude day and the @NSPCC are In conjunction with this. What are you playing at? https://t.co/7D6lznnk4u

The event, which British Naturism described as the biggest of the year, featured participants throwing away their costumes and suitcases and climbing naked.

Previously, this event drew criticism from those who were worried that perverted people could prey on children.

In one session held last year, protesters gathered outside the entrance to Waterworld in the presence of police.

However, British Naturism and Waterworld both insist on calling a "strong child and vulnerable adult protection policy" in place.

Other Twitter users have also given their support for the event, which will run from 7pm to 10pm.

@freewilluklive tweeted: "Nothing controversial here, just natural swimmers."

Dan @ChristopheCD wrote: "In many European countries this is normal. What's the real problem here? I would not describe the nudists as predators."

British Naturism was founded in 1964 and is the internationally recognized British naturism organization.

Its Facebook group says it 'exists to unite and support naturists, to protect naturist sites and provide more, to make social nudity more acceptable across the UK'.
