Ask yourself 3 questions before you set off:

End of days capitalism is Jet2, Tui and Love Holidays still sending out holidaymakers to Rhodes.
A non-functioning government is one that doesn’t advise against travel.
Consumerism is still flying out in case you don’t get a refund.
Code red for humanity. 🚨
Hearing multiple reports of people on paddleboards drifting out to sea doesn’t make anyone feel safe or confident.
Why does this keep happening?
A few thoughts in 🧵
1) There is absolutely no advice for people who may turn up at their local supermarket to buy a paddleboard ⬇️
4) Many folk say that education is important, but how many do we alienate in the process because “we live on an island and know about the sea”? Language and outreach matters.
Don’t usually post too much water safety advice on this account because I know our audience are careful peeps, but just in case- please don’t be tempted to go for a swim in the sea tomorrow-because it looks like this and quite unsafe 👇🏾. Please and thanks 💖
Speaking of weekends, we’re headed to the Lake District this month to have a weekend full of learning, progression and exploration. If you want to get on the next one (in September) become a member today. Click on the link in bio 💖

Paddleboarding in the city
With so many beautiful waterways in the city, you can always pop on for a relaxing paddle. Weekends away are great, but we love a doorstep adventure 👌🏾.

Hard to believe perhaps but this is the middle of Manchester. Sorry to those who couldn’t make it 🫠. We had a great morning in the sunshine x #doorstepadventure#pocpaddle
