Thanks to a meeting organised by Visit Pembrokeshire at Port of Milford Haven, attended by the RNLI, we are now signed up as official RNLI ambassadors. It's shocking to know that there were 202 accidental drownings last year and a direct correlation between deaths by drowning and periods of hot weather. Their new campaign is 'Float To Live' - basically encouraging anyone who finds themselves in the water in unexpected circumstances, to put your head back, get your ears under the water and try to relax. They recommended trying it in a pool or safe situation to know what it feels like. And of course, even better, make sure you’re wearing a lifejacket or bouyancy aid and always have some means of communication with you such as a mobile phone or VHF radio.
As ambassadors, it's all about sharing the messages with our followers and you sharing it with someone else.
