@damekellyholmes I do feel so much for you, 400 people per year accidentally drown in the uk and the majority are between males between 10 and 18, 360,00 worldwide which includes natural disasters, water safety in th UK needs celebrity backing, maybe you could become an ambassador of water safety
@EastSussexFRS@NFCC_FireChiefs @CFOESFRS Fantastic bit of advice Dawn, I’m sure all FRS’s will be doing something to promote the “Be Water Aware” message, SYFR are certainly going to be there supporting everyone.
@sharrond62 Glad you’re ok, it’s nice to appreciate the work of the emergency services, I’m a fire fighter too, was this a possible act of arson rather than accidental ignition ?
Other work we do in the fire service is water safety, maybe you can help by getting involved in this too.
Only gone and decided where the #Portsafe that was very kindly donated to me for walking up scafell pike from @ReachandRescue is going to go. Just dotting some i's n crossing some t's then I will reveal where it is going. Huge thank youy for this amazingly kind donation
It is with great sadness that we have been informed of the passing earlier today of the person rescued from the River on Thur evening. Despite the determined efforts of the Public emergency services and FSR volunteers. We would like to offer our condolonces to the Colhoun family
Please sign & RT to tell Network Rail to reinstate Arundel Signalman Peter Lee who has been sacked for taking a 20 minute lawful break! by 44 years unblemished service wiped out https://t.co/heh8IblbKg
Education is key. Collaboration will enforce change. Safety equipment will save lives. Let's get water safety on the curriculum properly. Let's enforce that this is checked & enforced. Let's have rescue equipment around bodies of open water just in case.
Prince’s Trust Final Prentation, a little hot under the collar in this heat, but well worth it to hear about the students achievements.
(And I don’t scrub up to bad either Lol)
Please retweet this water safety video by Darren Downes, the father of Ellis Downes who drowned in a river 2 years ago. In 2016 we recovered the bodies of 8 young men, in the last 5 weeks we have recovered 6 more. https://t.co/5IFbHQE50g
Prince’s Trust final presentation, a little bit hot under the collar but it was well worth it to see what the students achieved. (Don’t scrub up too badly Lol)
School holidays are now well underway & we are urging people, especially children and teenagers, to think carefully before they go for a swim, as well as what they need to do to stay safe.
