Swimsafe a great success!

26/7/2022

96 children benefitted from the RNLI Swimsafe campaign, held at Anstruther Lifeboat Station on Sunday 24 of July.

This provided water safety advice to an enthusiastic bunch of 7 - 14 year olds!

The main aim of the event was to reinforce the 'Float-to-live' technique, should they find themselves in difficulty at sea.

This included important advice such as:

Stop and think- always swim in a safe place
Stay together- always swim with an adult
Float- if you find yourself in trouble in the water, float on your bck like a starfish
Call 999 in an emergency and ask for the Coastguard


The attendees were rewarded with a special certificate to show their attendance at the session!

A big thank you from Anstruther RNLI goes out to the participants, parents and volunteers for a very successful day!

Swim Safe is coming to Anstruther! 🏊‍♂️
 
We're excited to announce that our RNLI lifeguards will be delivering FREE Swim Safe sessions in Anstruther on Sunday 24 July for kids aged 7-14.
 
Following a successful sunny day at Portobello Beach last weekend, we're looking forward to teaching more children about water safety in a fun and safe environment.
 
There's still plenty of spaces available throughout the day.

​We have been selected as the 4th Launch a Memory (LAM) Lifeboat in the RNLI.
We are looking to have 10,000 names (5000 each side) on the new decals of our Shannon Class Lifeboat expected on station Q4 2023-Q1 2024.
We have had a great start and the concept has been warmly received both locally and at a national level.
It’s an absolute honour for us to have been selected. It will bring a huge amount of interest to the new station and through that boost our loyal supporter audience.
