Abuse survivors on panel
Survivors of abusive practices in gymnastics will be at the centre of the steering committee that will oversee the recommendations that came from an independent review into the sport. Five gymnasts with ‘‘lived experience of harm, and with a mix of experience across codes, clubs, genders, and other roles within the gymnastics community’’ are being sought to be part of the committee that will also include human rights and child protection experts. It will also include representatives from Gymnastics New Zealand and Sport New Zealand and will be chaired by lawyer Sally McKechnie.
