🛟National Water Safety Awareness Week is back: 18th - 25th of May 2026.

🌊National Water Safety Awareness Week is a powerful reminder to pause, reflect, and have life-saving conversations. Whether you’re casting a line, taking a dip, or strolling along a canal, it’s about staying aware, making smart choices, and looking out for each other.
Because no matter how you enjoy the water — Respect the Risk.
We have plenty of events for everyone to take part in and learn more about how to stay safe in, on or near the water.
