☀️ Stay Safe This Summer – Think Before You Jump! 🌊

With temperatures rising, it can be tempting to cool off by jumping into lakes, reservoirs, rivers, or other open water. But what may look inviting can be extremely dangerous.

⚠️ Open water risks include: • Hidden debris, rocks, and underwater hazards • Sudden drops and strong currents • Cold water shock, even on hot days • Difficulty getting out once you're in

A split-second decision can have life-changing consequences.

✅ Stay safe by: • Swimming only at supervised, designated locations • Never jumping into water you don't know • Looking out for friends and encouraging safe choices • Calling 999 and asking for the Coastguard if someone is in trouble at the coast, or 999 for inland water emergencies

Please enjoy the warm weather responsibly and help keep yourself and others safe this summer.
