🛟 Float to Live!
You know us, we always encourage folk to get outdoors! It’s great to see that there has been a rise in open water swimming and using inflatables when on holiday or cooling off during heat waves! Recently, however, there have been many reports of people of all ages - but particularly children and young people - finding difficulty in open water. Through working with Byw’n Iach Gwynedd Healthy Lifestyles and , we’re aware that swimming lessons are not automatically offered in schools now, and so fewer and fewer children are learning the basics of how to navigate being in water. This is a key opportunity to teach folk about ‘cold water shock’ and the dangers of open water.
So! Ahead of the summer we just wanted to share a little video of how to keep safe. Listen, watch, remember these top tips and pass it on! You never know whose life you could save.
Have fun out there, and stay safe 😎
