The Royal Life Saving Society UK (RLSS UK) is the Drowning Prevention Charity and the UK’s leading provider of water safety and drowning prevention education.
Around 400 people needlessly die from drowning in the UK every year and thousands more suffer injury, some life-changing, through near-drowning experiences. Putting these figures into context one person dies every 20 hours in the UK and drowning is the third highest cause of accidental death of children in the UK.
We have a huge challenge facing us to help save lives and reduce the number of UK and Irish citizens drowning.
Ongoing funds are vital to our success in reducing the amount of drowning tragedies and accidents that happen in the UK every year. There are many fun and exciting ways to raise money for the RLSS UK running is definitely one of them!
