A new safety campaign is coming to West Lothian this summer, offering lifesaving swimming lessons.
Local children will be offered water safety lessons during this year’s Drowning Prevention Week organised by the Royal Life Saving Society (RLSS) between July 18 and 25 as part of the acclaimed Learn to Swim programme – a partnership between Scottish Water and Scottish Swimming’s spanning across almost 40 areas in Scotland.
Coming after day-to-day lessons were interrupted for almost two years due to the pandemic, it reflects an urgent ongoing commitment to help children to become confident and competent swimmers while improving water safety for a new generation of swimmers.
