What a gorgeous Bank Holiday it’s been! Sunny Sands was incredibly busy and we’ve seen the recent posts around this and sinking clay concerns. Days like today are exactly why having volunteer lifeguards on patrol in Folkestone matters so much.

While many of us were enjoying the sunshine with friends and family this weekend, our volunteer lifeguards were on the beach keeping watch and helping those who needed them:

🛟 22 lost children reunited with parents
🛟 17 people assisted whilst in difficulty
🛟 5 medical incidents responded too
🛟 10+ first aid administered
🛟 4 water rescues carried out
🛟 Lots of advice provided, tombstoning prevented, signposting, water and suncream

They do this because they genuinely care about Folkestone and keeping you safe.

We run entirely through donations. Every plaster, bandage, bottle of water, rescue board, piece of lifesaving equipment, and every hour of training for our volunteers is funded by the kindness and support of the public.

If you’d like to support our volunteers, we appreciate anything you could spare:

Thank you for always looking out for one another on the beach.

Love Folkestone Rescue Lifeguards ♥️
