For the cost of a cup of coffee (around ÂŁ3.50), you could help a child take a step closer to safety in the water. But imagine if everyone skipped their coffee for just one day and donated instead? The impact would be huge. #WaterSafety #DrowningPrevention #SpreadtheSunshine

Every parent thinks, “It won’t happen to me.” But every year, thousands of families learn the heartbreaking truth: drowning can happen to anyone. It’s fast. It’s silent. But most importantly, it’s preventable. #WaterSafety #DrowningPrevention #WaterSafetyEducation

Prevention starts with education, and that’s why we’ve been running our Parent Partnership Workshops in South Africa. From CPR training to hands-on #watersafety skills, these sessions equip parents with the confidence to make safer choices around water. #ParentPartnership

Floaties & armbands can give kids false confidence in the water—but real water safety comes from proper education & survival skills. Let’s teach kids the skills they need to swim and be safe around water, not just float! #SwimSafe #DrowningPrevention

We talk about big issues like climate change and poverty. But did you know that drowning takes more lives each year than malnutrition? This silent epidemic is 100% preventable. Let’s break the silence. #WaterSafety #Drowningprevention #SurvivalSwimming #SpreadtheSunshine

#Survivalswimming is more than just learning to swim laps. It’s about confidence, calm, and control in real-life situations. Drowning happens quickly, and often when we least expect it. Knowing how to survive in the water can be the difference between a close call and a tragedy.
