With half term starting, and with sunshine being forecast over the next few weeks, please remember and share RNLI advice – if you get into trouble in the water, #FloatToLive.
Advice
Tilt your head back with ears submerged
Relax and try to control your breathing
Move your hands to help you stay afloat
Once you are over the initial shock, call for help or swim to safety
In an emergency call 999 or 112 and ask for the Coastguard.
