ALT A bright infographic titled "Staying Safe While in the Water" with a red, white, and blue color scheme. The top features a logo labeled "Drowning Prevention Society UK" and a ribbon with "Drowning Prevention Week." Key statistics are highlighted, stating "Over the last 5 years, there was an average of 307 accidental drownings per year across the UK and Ireland." The infographic provides safety tips, including "Choose lifeguarded venues," "Know your beach flags," "Acclimatise to cold water shock," and "Swim with others and start before entering the water." Additional advice includes "Plan your entry and exit points in open water," and "If in trouble float on your back."
