An excellent example of why the Float To Live safety messaging is vital and can prove the difference between life and death, even for the most experienced swimmers. If you get into trouble at the coast or in the water, call 999 and ask for the Coastguard. #FloatToLive

When Michael was swept out of his depth, he remembered to #FloatToLive. Our amazing volunteers @ScarboroughRNLI raced to the rescue as Michael floated. We caught up with him at #EmbassyGardens. #RNLI #RNLIRescues #Lifeguards #WaterSafety #BeachSafety #SkyPool @HellyHansen

This is fantastic news. We’re proud to work with @bloombergdotorg to help those most at risk of drowning. This funding will help turn the tide and make drowning prevention a priority worldwide.
Bloomberg Philanthropies@BloombergDotOrg

Drowning has taken more than 2.5 million lives over the last decade. We're investing an additional $60M to scale proven solutions that save lives in Bangladesh, Ghana, India, Uganda, and Viet Nam, and to launch new efforts in 10 U.S. states with high numbers of drowning deaths. bloombg.org/3K1vJ0d

Great to see parliament debate on provision of water safety education 🛟 in UK schools. @Swim_England research highlighting large inequalities in access to 🏊🏽‍♂️ lessons, and % of primary school children able to swim 25m dropping. parliamentlive.tv/event/index/f2…
