Great advice to bear in mind as we enter another hot spell. Stay safe and #RespectTheWater

[HM Coastguard @HMCoastguard]

Float to live.

These simple instructions could save your life if you ever enter the water unexpectedly or find yourself in difficulty.

In an emergency at the coast, call 999 and ask for the Coastguard.

#FloatToLive #WaterSafety #Coastguard

[Suffolk Prepared @SuffolkPrepared]

As the temperatures have risen again, remember to stay safe in and around the water 💙

[EnvAgencyAnglia @EnvAgencyAnglia]

Don’t climb, play or swim in or around sluices. They open and close automatically
without warning and when they do, they will sweep you away in a dangerous rush of
water.

Follow safety signage and remember #FloatToLive if you get into
trouble. #RespectTheWater
