If someone else falls into the water – Call, Tell, Throw. If you see someone in trouble in the water, remember this lifesaving advice. - Call 999 - Tell them to float on their back - Throw something to help them float #BeWaterAware #RespectTheWater

Never enter the water to rescue your dog - who will rescue you? Most dogs manage to scramble out - some owners are not so lucky. Safety tips: nfcc.org.uk/our-services/c… #BeWaterAware

We've seen a concerning rise in water-related incidents this year Even when the sun's shining, the water can be dangerously cold Think twice before jumping in. Hidden currents, cold water shock & underwater hazards can take you by surprise #BeWaterAware london-fire.gov.uk/news/2025-news…
