As we approach the summer months, it's more important than ever to refresh our water safety knowledge so that we can stay safe this summer.

Whilst we cover water safety in our weekly lessons we will have dedicated weeks from the 9th to the 22nd of June for drowning prevention week.

This year we will again be visiting local schools to provide assemblies to help spread the message of how to stay safe in and around the water throughout the month of June is support of drowning prevention week.

Always follow the Water Safety Code

Whenever you are around the water:

STOP AND THINK

Take time to assess your surroundings.  Look for the dangers and always research local signs and advice.

STAY TOGETHER

When around water always go with friends and family. Swim at a lifeguarded venue.

CALL 999 

Ask for the Fire and Rescue Service when inland and the Coastguard if at the coast. Don't enter the water to rescue.

FLOAT

Fall in or become tired - stay calm, float on your back and call for help. Throw something that floats to somebody that had fallen in.
