Heading to the beach with the kids?

Beaches can get busy, especially in warm weather, and it’s easy for children to become separated.

When you arrive, take a few simple steps:

Take a photo of your child so you can show what they were wearing 📸

Agree a meeting point in case you get separated 📍

Pick up a beach safety wristband and write down your contact details if they’re available at your beach 🏖️

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