🌊⚠️ Drowning Prevention Week – 13th–20th June 2026 ⚠️🌊
This week, we're proud to support Drowning Prevention Week, a national campaign dedicated to teaching vital water safety skills and helping to prevent accidental drownings.
Water can be great fun, but it can also be unpredictable—especially in rivers, lakes, reservoirs, and the sea. Knowing what to do in an emergency can make all the difference.
Throughout the week, our swimmers will be learning important lifesaving skills, including:
🏊 Floating on their back to stay calm and conserve energy
🏊 Treading water
🏊 Understanding the dangers of cold water shock
🏊 How to attract attention and call for help
🏊 What to do if they or someone else gets into difficulty in the water
🏊 How and when to contact the emergency services
Our goal is to help every swimmer build confidence, awareness, and the knowledge needed to stay safe around water.
Together, we can help spread these important messages and reduce the number of water-related accidents.
Learn the skills. Share the message. Stay safe around water.
