Today, 25th July, is the very first World Drowning Prevention Day, as declared by the United Nations.
Drowning remains a global public health concern.
Anyone can drown. No one should.

We're so proud of our Water Rescue Team & crews from Bishop, Durham, Stanhope, & Middleton, who at 5pm last night responded to a vehicle in the water at Westgate. On arrival our crews took immediate action, in what was challenging conditions, to ensure the driver was rescued.
