Drowning deaths among 13-17 year olds have increased since 2020.
The RLSS are expanding #DrowningPreventionWeek to reach teenagers.

46% of accidental drownings in those aged 18-25 involve alcohol and/or drugs.
Drowning is preventable. Support friends under the influence of alcohol/drugs and help them avoid dangerous routes by open water.

Developing a new course on the MCA and alcohol and substance use in the coming months. A complex area where I’m finding a theme of professionals being challenged when completing capacity assessments.
Hoping it will help and looking forward to getting my geek on! 🐾

That's why addressing domestic abuse must become daily business for @NHSEngland 1/2
