The Water Whispers (Episode 10 is the final episode of Season 1 of the Views, News & Observations project) A child can drown in just 20 seconds and an adult in about 40 seconds, sometimes with as little as half a cup of water in the lungs. Drowning isn’t limited to deep water; even 1-2 inches (2.5-5 cm) can be dangerous for infants and young children, posing risks in bathtubs, buckets, and puddles. Adults can also drown if water covers their mouth and nose, especially if unconscious. Any water amount can be hazardous, highlighting the need for water safety awareness and safety around all water bodies. youtube.com/watch?v=6kjZUY… #edaccura #NOIZE #blackscantswim #changingthenarrative #watersafety #blackswimmingassociation #DrowningPrevention #SwimSafe #RespectTheWater #BeWaterAware #drowningpreventionweek

Amazing to hear from the guru Professor Major General John Pearn on his groundbreaking work in home pool drowning prevention & the challenges faced from manufacturers & the general public when implementing pool fencing which has ultimately saved thousands of lives #WCDP2023

We're into Spring now so if you are one of many families who paused their child's swimming lessons over the cooler months, think about enrolling in an intensive program these school holidays to help them catch up theconversation.com/thinking-of-qu… via @ConversationEDU
