All about Swimming Safety
Swimming is a great way to stay fit and have fun, but water can be dangerous. Learn to swim with a trained instructor, never swim alone and always follow the rules and instructions from lifeguards and pool staff.
Check the water depth before diving, and never dive into shallow or unknown water. Use a life jacket when on boats or in open water, and stay close to shore. Tell an adult straight away if someone seems to be in trouble in the water.

Frequently asked questions about Swimming Safety
Why should I never swim alone?
If you get into trouble, there may be no one to help you. Always swim with an adult or in a supervised area.
What is a rip current?
A strong current that flows away from the shore. If caught in one, stay calm, float or swim parallel to the shore until you are out of the current.
What should I do if someone is drowning?
Shout for help, call emergency services and throw something that floats. Do not go in unless you are trained.
