There are several vital skills everyone needs to know in relation to water safety, whether at sea or on inland waters:
- Awareness of safety in and around the water, with reference to tides, currents, winds and local conditions.
- What to do in an emergency: who to contact, action steps while waiting for assistance.
- Capsize procedure - including equipment required and off shore survival techniques.
- Practical CPR training; each child is given a mouthpiece, and encouraged to practice on a CPR doll.
- Recruiting the next generation of rescue workers and fostering a culture of volunteerism and 'giving back' to the community.
Working closely with paramedic teams, we stress that the workshop offers the skills for youngsters to render the first aid to patients, and that the first few minutes after reaching the casualty are the most vital.
