As the #WorkChristmasParty season is upon us, let's make sure that we plan our routes home. Mates might hold their mate's hair back after one too many but real mates walk them back too.

#BeAMate this Christmas and get your friends home safely, away from water. #DontDrinkandDrown

Less than half of UK adults stayed with others last time they were in and around a body of water. Staying together is vital when it comes to water safety, you can help others if they get into difficulty and they can help you too. #DrowningPreventionWeek

With evidence-backed insights; the #NationalDrowningReport provides a tangible picture of accidental drownings in the UK & we are pleased to announce that it is available to read now: https://t.co/AjQDEnozDM
