Recruiting for an Education Manager to join the @rnli Water Safety team in the South West. Its a great job for someone with an interest in coastal activity and a background in education. jobs.rnli.org/vacancy/water-…


Excellent multi agency meeting at @SandyParkExeter Not a bad backdrop either!

Swimming is a life skill. Access to swimming pools is crucial to fight the drowning problem. 5 pools in Cornwall are under threat of closure & only 10 councillors get the opportunity to vote. Please sign this petition to at least get this to full council. chng.it/JP6bMynNxr

Swimmer in Cornwall had "done all she could" to aid her own rescue - a pink float and a pink hat helped her to be found quickly. Full story ⬇️ hmcoastguard.blogspot.com/2021/11/swimme… 🎥🔇 @MCA_media #999Coastguard

Definitely not the day to get ill in Cornwall. There are currently 27 ambulances and 1 air ambulance queuing outside A&E!

Well done @KevinWeatherman You’ve arranged a cracking day for your retirement. Best wishes

There is lots happening with this. The film is just a start. We are working with governing bodies for swimming and also with some of the other wild swimming groups. The majority of swimmers are really good, but we are keen to make sure everyone knows how they can be safe.

We need a national "wild / cold water swimming' sea safety campaign asap before we lose someone. Seeing too many close calls. Anyone up for it? @RNLI @MCA_media @surflifesaving @CoastSafe_DandC @Sinstance @Drustanward
