🌊 Shared on behalf of Active Lifestyles Stroud District 🌊

We’re proud to support the launch of the Safer Swim Campaign, raising awareness of essential water‑safety messages across our district — especially around canals, lakes, quarries, and other open‑water spots where risks are often underestimated.

As the weather warms up, please take a moment to remind friends, family, and young people about the importance of staying safe around water. The campaign highlights:

Avoiding Unsupervised Swimming — Open water can be colder, deeper, and more unpredictable than it looks.

Recognising Hidden Dangers — Currents, weeds, sudden drop‑offs, and unseen debris can all pose serious risks.

Following the RLSS UK Water Safety Code — Simple steps that save lives.

The Water Safety Code reminds everyone to:

“Stop & Think” — Assess the risks before going near water.

“Stay Together” — Never swim alone; look out for each other.

“In an emergency, call 999”

“Float” — If you fall in, fight the instinct to swim; lie back and float to regain control.

Please share these messages and help keep our community safe.
Posters are included below — feel free to download and share.
