 Summer water safety in Elmbridge recap
Elmbridge has beautiful waterways which are popular in all seasons, but especially summer. Visitors often enjoy leisure time by the riverside or taking part in water sports activities.
Water Safety has always been one of the Elmbridge Community and Safety Partnership’s priorities. We are leading the way in Surrey with partners at the Environment Agency, Surrey Fire and Rescue Services, Surrey Police, RoSPA (Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents) and the RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution).
This summer, we aimed to raise further awareness of the dangers of open water with our ‘Respect the Water’ Campaign. We worked on several projects as part of this campaign.
