Water Safety in Thanet

Getting the message across about water safety is vital, as in the coastline plays such a huge part in all our lives in North East Kent.

This initiative is aimed at primary and secondary school children aged 8 to 14 years old, as children spend much of their holidays enjoying our beautiful beaches and we want to ensure that they know how to stay safe.

‘Water Safety in Thanet’ is a DVD resource that focuses on the dangers around the Thanet coastline, how to stay safe, have fun on the beaches and look after the environment. This initiative is a collaboration between the Thanet Coast Project, lifeguards at Thanet Leisureforce, HM Coastguard and RNLI with support from the Big Lottery Fund.

Thanet schools and interested groups have been sent a ‘Water Safety in Thanet’ DVD and coastal educational pack as part of this initiative. However, the message has been encompassed on this website to show a trailer, and cover the four main themes in four easy sections that can be viewed online.
