Today we commemorate 82 years since the D-Day landings, the historic Allied invasion of Normandy during the Second World War and still recognised as the largest seaborne invasion in history.

The success of D‑Day played a crucial part in securing protection from invasion and we will never forget the sacrifices of those who gave their service across our nation.

Hot weather and busy beaches can be disorientating for younger children.

It’s not uncommon for little ones to get lost in crowds, but these tips can help reunite you if you do become separated:

Take a photo on arrival so you have an up-to-date reference to show authorities (and a handy reminder of what they were wearing) 📸

Agree a meeting point if you get lost 📍

Use beach wristbands and write your contact number on them so you can be called and reunited if you get separated 🙋

Make sure that everyone in the group knows to call 999 if they’re in trouble 📞

Wristbands can be ordered from our web shop for free. Get yours here: bit.ly/HMCGwristbands
