As summer arrives with warmer weather, it's vital to stay mindful of safety, particularly around water. According to the Oulton July Safeguarding Leaflet, several guidelines can help ensure a safe and enjoyable season.
Supervising children near water, learning to swim, and using life jackets during boating or water sports are essential practices. Staying hydrated and avoiding alcohol while engaging in water activities also promote safety.
Following local guidelines, avoiding risky swimming areas, and swimming with a buddy can prevent accidents. Sun protection, staying informed about weather conditions, and knowing how to use life-saving equipment are additional measures to enhance safety.
Adhering to these guidelines ensures everyone can enjoy a fun and secure summer. For more information, refer to the Oulton July Safeguarding Leaflet.
