Drowning Prevention Week 2024- We were absolutely devastated to hear about the tragic news of two teenage boys who have lost their lives after getting into difficulty into one of the nearby rivers a couple of weeks ago. Our thoughts and prayers are with their families and friends at this time. This is a heartbreaking reminder of the importance of water safety.
As we approach drowning prevention week from the 15-22nd of June, it is crucial that we all take the time to educate ourselves and our loved ones about the dangers of water. At our facility, all of our lessons during this week will be tailored around water safety.
We ask everyone to visit the RLSS website for valuable resources on how to stay safe in and around water www.rlss.org.uk/dpw . Take this time during Drowning Prevention Week as it’s never too early to start teaching children about water safety. Let’s come together to prevent future tragedies and protect our communities.
