A mum said she could have been planning her daughter's funeral if it wasn't for volunteers at the RNLI.
Milena Smith, from Birkenhead, was enjoying a day out in Barmouth, North Wales back in August with her husband and their two daughters. Mabel, 12 and Elsie, 10, were playing in the water when they started to get into difficulty.
Milena, who has recently learned to swim, heard her daughters "screaming loudly" and they began drifting further and further out. The mum rang 999 straight away and asked for the coastguard while her husband went into the sea.
