Hi Resident, As the hot weather continues people might be tempted to cool off in open water or in a reservoir. Reservoirs can be extremely dangerous, and are NOT the place for swimming, boarding or paddle boarding even on the warmest of days as there are many hazards.
Deep water and steep sides make it difficult to get out, and hidden machinery can be a hazard Remote locations mean It may be difficult for emergency services to help anyone in trouble Strong currents can be caused by machinery under the water Cold water shock can take your breath away and lead to panic, as the water is extremely cold Every year in the news we see about a tragic death of someone who has died after getting into difficulties. We are asking that parents make their children aware of the dangers of going in the water.
