Water Safety Advice

🌊 Stay Safe Near Water

With the warmer weather, it can be tempting to swim in lakes and rivers across London. However, at this time of year, water temperatures remain very cold, and there may be hidden hazards beneath the surface.

The RNLI provides important water safety advice, which can be found here:

Sadly, emergency services respond to a number of serious and fatal incidents every year in inland waterways. We urge everyone to keep themselves and their children safe by avoiding open water swimming unless a lifeguard is present.

Please take care and look out for one another.
