Important information to stay safe this summer

Air temp isn’t water temp. Stay safe.

Entering cold water makes you GASP.
Cold water increases your breathing and heart rate, causing PANIC.
Your muscles will get too cold, making you uncoordinated and WEAK.

RLSS UK’s advice is:
• Choose lifeguarded spots
• Never swim alone
• Wear bright colours
• Enter the water slowly
• Get out before you get cold

If you get into trouble, Find Your Float.

It may feel warm outside, but the water isn’t.
Share this vital water safety advice to help keep others safe.

• Stay within reach of others
• Swim in supervised, lifeguarded areas

🛟In an emergency:

• If you fall in or become tired, stay calm, float on your back, and call for help
• If you see someone in difficulty, throw them something that floats
• Call 999
• If you're at the coast, ask for the Coastguard

💚 You Don’t Have to Go Through This Alone 💚
11th-17th May 2026 Mental Health Awareness week

Struggling with your mental health can feel isolating, but you are not weak for feeling this way—and you don’t have to face it by yourself.

Talking to someone you trust can be a powerful first step toward feeling supported, understood, and less alone.

Whether it’s a friend, a family member, a colleague, or a mental health professional, opening up can help ease the weight you’re carrying. You don’t need to have the “right words” or all the answers—just starting the conversation matters.

If you’re finding things overwhelming right now, reaching out could make more difference than you realise.

Your feelings are valid, and help is available. 💬💚



Mental health is just as important as physical health 💚

This Mental Health Awareness Week, we’re reminding everyone that there are lots of ways to get help and support:

💚 Speak to your GP
💚 Contact NHS 111 for urgent mental health support
💚 Reach out to trusted friends, family, or support organisations

Getting the right help early can make a big difference.

Have a wonderful bank holiday Monday! ☀️ 🏊‍♂️
