Made it to the local news today:) Promoting awareness on river safety...

Here at SUP On Thames Ltd river safety is always part of any SUP lesson. So it was great to participate in the Royal Berks Fire & Rescue throwline training.

Did you know there is throwline within the emergency post in Pangbourne Meadow by the river by the concrete slipway. Call 999, quote the location and you will be given the code to open the cabinet.

Throw the throwline towards the person in difficulty, just upsteam. Never wrap the rope around your wrist, and remember to keep hold of the rope!

The person in the water should be directed to float on their back and have feet first going downstream. 'Float to Live - described in the ITV coverage posted here...

Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service is urging people to 'float to live' as part of its WaterWise safety campaign. | ITV News Meridian

I’m always looking to learn more about SUP so I can be up to date with the latest safety advice for my customers. Today was all about the paddling challenges of the tidal Thames from Teddington. I joined the brilliant to ‘work the slacks’ as part of their TSK1 training at Kew Bridge … a must for anyone thinking about paddling in tidal waters.
