Today's World Drowning Prevention Day & we're playing our part locally by sharing advice on how to stay safe around open water, via our awareness campaign, Be #WaterAware this summer. @RNLI

Our campaign on water safety is continuing and we’d like to remind everyone to stay #WaterAware 🏊♂️
Hidden currents and cold water shock can catch even the best swimmers off guard, not to mention submerged objects.
Know the risks and stay safe this summer.

Please don't be tempted to cool off in open water. Whilst it may be hot, rivers and lakes are still cold.
Cold water shock catches even the best swimmers out.
