Parents of teenagers, take a look at the Royal Life Saving Society UK - RLSS UK guide below ⬇️

The Met Office has forecast rising temperatures this week, with parts of the UK reaching 28°C towards the weekend.

With exams finishing and the school term coming to a close, NOW is the time to talk to your teenager about water safety.

Worried they won’t listen? This guide shows you how to say it so they will.

Don’t miss the conversation that matters most.

Thanks to funding opportunities, we’ve proudly been offering our walking sports, including cricket and football, for free, giving lots of people the opportunity to get active in a fun, sociable way.

This funding period has now come to an end - but we don’t want the fun to stop!

To keep these sessions running, we’ll be introducing a small fee of £3.30 per session across all our walking sports to those who don’t have an Active Blackpool membership (these sessions will still be included as part of our membership offering).

To learn more about walking sports, visit https://www.activeblackpool.co.uk/community/walking-sports/

We want to inspire children to have a positive relationship with water, with all the mental and physical benefits of being in, on, and around water, and enjoy a lifetime of fun in the water, safely.

Why not bring the family to one of our Family Fun Swimming Sessions to encourage the development of water safety skills and knowledge?

This week is Drowning Prevention Week and The Royal Life Saving Society has been campaigning tirelessly for over 130 years to try to prevent drowning through high quality, water safety education.

Our message to you is, if you or your child can't swim, please consider swimming lessons this week and have those talks at home. At Active Blackpool, we offer lots of different swimming lessons for children, adults and schools.

Visit our website to view our timetables and book a class.
