β˜€οΈ Water Safety - Please Share β˜€οΈ

It is important to talk to children and young people about their safety if they are playing near the water. Have a conversation about it and explain:

They should never swim in an unsupervised area like lochs, rivers or ponds where there isn't an adult to help if they get into difficulties. It is much safer to go to a swimming pool where there is a lifeguard on duty.

They shouldn't play with or touch life-saving equipment like life rings by the side of waterways. That equipment might be used to save someone's life.

Open water can become very cold just a few feet under the surface and can cause cramps or cold water shock. Swimming in unsupervised water can be extremely dangerous, even for the most experienced swimmer.

You learn something new every day! Please use the GPS signage if you or anyone else ever finds themselves in difficulty along the Clyde, it will speed up the process of the emergency service response. This is why it is so important that these signs don't get destroyed by vandalism. Stay safe πŸ›ŸπŸ©΅
