Today, members of our community came together at West Mersea Beach to remember Shelina, Sameeha and Musa.

Following the heartbreaking news that Musa has also passed away, our thoughts are with his family and everyone affected by this unimaginable tragedy.

We are grateful to everyone who attended this evening’s vigil with such compassion, dignity and respect.

As our community continues to grieve, we remain committed to supporting practical water safety improvements for West Mersea in their memory.

May Shelina, Sameeha and Musa rest in peace.

Welcome to the West Mersea Water Safety Fund

Following the heartbreaking events at West Mersea Beach on 22 July 2026, this page has been created by local residents to support practical water safety improvements for our community.

Our thoughts remain with the family, everyone affected and all those who responded so courageously that evening.

Our aim is not to assign blame or pre-empt the official investigation.

Instead, we hope to bring together residents, local businesses, the Council, HM Coastguard, the RNLI, volunteer water safety organisations and others to explore practical ways to improve water safety for everyone who enjoys West Mersea’s coastline.

If you’d like to support the campaign, please visit our GoFundMe page below.

Together, we can create a lasting legacy in memory of those we have lost.

Working together for a safer coastline.
