☀️ Heatwave reminder from all of us at☀️

❗Stay hydrated, keep cool, and don't forget to top up your water throughout the day❗

We hope you are enjoying the weather - but look after yourself☺️

Our gyms and studios are air conditioned - so don't let the weather put you off your workout.

As part of the latest Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (GMFRS) WaterSafety campaign we are reminding people about the dangers of open water.

If you encourage your mates to go in the water it could be the last time you see them. Cold water shock kills even the strongest swimmers.

Drowning Prevention Week is a powerful reminder that water safety is a life skill everyone should have. 💙

Learning to swim isn’t just about fun days at the pool or beach—it can save lives. Every year, preventable drowning incidents affect families and communities, but many of these tragedies can be avoided through education, awareness, and confidence in the water.

Teaching children (and adults!) how to swim, understand water risks, and stay calm in emergencies makes a real difference. It’s never too early—or too late—to learn.

Let’s work together to build safer communities by prioritizing swimming skills and water safety knowledge.

🏊‍♂️ Learn to swim
👀 Supervise closely
⚠️ Respect the water

Because everyone deserves to feel safe in and around water.

We're supporting National Drowning Prevention Week 🏊🏻

Always follow the Water Safety Code:

💦Stop and think
Take time to assess your surroundings. Look for the dangers and always research local signs and advice.

💦Stay together
When around water always go with friends or family. Swim at a lifeguarded venue.

🚨In an emergency

📱 Call 999
If you are at the coast, call 999 and ask for the Coastguard. Don’t enter the water to rescue.

🤽 Float
Fall in or become tired - stay calm, float on your back and call for help. Throw something that floats to somebody that has fallen in.
