Find resources and information to help you share water safety advice in your community.
From commercial fishing crews to coastal walkers – it’s vital that people know how to stay safe when on or around the water. By sharing water safety advice, the RNLI aims to prevent incidents before they happen and encourage people to adopt safer behaviour, so that they can safely enjoy their time at the coast.
Below you will find resources to help you support water safety in your area, including our safety advice for specific activities and information about our main summer beach safety campaign.
If you need further support please email [email protected]
Use our free, downloadable lesson plans, activities and resources to teach young people how to be safe in, on and around the water, and what to do if anything goes wrong.
Take a look
For some, being in, on or around the water is a passion. For others it’s a livelihood. And for the lucky ones, it’s both.
