Stay safe when open water swimming
The RNLI is reaching out to water safety groups and the open water swimming & dipping community to they have launched a short video featuring top tips on cold water dipping.
This year the RNLI have seen a huge increase in Open Water Swimmers & Cold Water Dippers across the UK and Ireland. Lifeboat crews have seen a 14% increase in call outs to swimmers in 2020 compared with 2019, whilst the coastguard has seen a 52% increase in swimming incidents in the last 4 months. The National Open Water Coaching Association (NOWCA) have also reported a 323% rise in swimmers as of October 2020.
Whilst
taking part in both activities has become even more popular this year with the
health benefits championed by many, this does not reduce the risks, especially
during the winter season, where the water temperature in the UK and Irish
waters is on average 12°C or less and with
rivers even colder, this makes all waters cold enough the cause cold water shock.
In response to this spike of interest in Open Water Swimming, the RNLI Water Safety Team have put together a video of top tips aimed at Cold Water Dippers, those who are bobbing around in the water for a short period of time.
The RNLI are reminding people to:
Be prepared – Choose your spot, go with a buddy, have the right equipment, check the whether and tides.
