Today marks the start of Drowning Prevention Week — a campaign we proudly support every year.
Over the last five years, 3,615 people have tragically drowned in the UK and Ireland. This alarming statistic will continue to rise if we don’t take action.
Knowing how to swim is an essential life skill...but is that enough? Understanding the Water Safety Code is key to helping people stay safe in and around water, which is why we’re proud to support this important campaign.
Throughout this week, our swimming lessons will focus on sharing water safety advice, life-saving skills, and practical tips to help children and adults stay safe in and around water.
