World Drowning Prevention Day 2022

Next Monday, 25th July, the global drowning prevention community will observe World Drowning Prevention Day. This day will serve two purposes, it will acknowledge and commemorate the thousands of lives lost to the water every year; and accelerate and celebrate life-saving solutions that we can all take to prevent drowning locally, nationally, regionally, and globally.

This year the theme is “Do one thing to prevent drowning” – we encourage you all to take one action – it could be sharing social media posts, sharing water safety advice, signing up for water safety lessons or support your local drowning prevention group.
