Last weekend, the Yorkshire South and West Field Operations Teams operated Jubilee Bridge in Doncaster for training and maintenance. These exercises ensure that our flood assets are kept in great condition, while also providing training so that we're ready for incident response.

We want to remind you not to swim in open water even if the water looks calm. Shallow water can feel warmer at the edge of reservoirs, rivers, and lakes. Never jump into open water where deeper water is much colder even in hot weather. Cold water shock can kill in 60 seconds.
