Although it may seem like a great way to cool down, please don't enter our waterways - there are hidden dangers. If you do find yourself in trouble in the water, remember #FloatToLive - Tilt your head back, ears submerged - Try to relax & control your breathing - Call for help

We supported a safety demo in collaboration with Manchester Water Safety Partnership at Piccadilly Basin, as part of Drowning Prevention Week. It highlighted the importance of water safety among staff & customers at local bars, hotels & offices, & how to use lifesaving equipment.

Set amongst National Waterways Museum, you’ll find Porters Row – a row of cottages, built in the 1830s to house those working the docks in Ellesmere Port. The four properties that remain are now dressed to recreate homes from 1830s, 1900s, 1930s and 1950s, acting as a window to the past 🪟
