BBC-British Swimming is conducting an investigation after multiple bullying claims were made by Paralympians about a coach, the BBC has learned.
A parent of one of the complainants told the BBC that swimmers were "belittled and criticised".
"We were told elite sport was not about the welfare of athletes but the pursuit of medals. There was a culture of fear," the parent said.
