Drowning doesn't look like drowning

Please publicize, read, and spread this article about recognising a drowning child. Someone posted this on Facebook, and its doing the rounds, but I thinks it's very important. I certainly had no idea (if I even thought about it) that of course a drowning person cannot draw attention to themselves...

Please look, especially as o manynof us are about to spent some rare time by the pool or beach.

This is really important, was stunned by the original thread.

DH, who was a competitive swimmer and a lifeguard was unaware - said focus was on the saving rather than recognising who to save.

Will be posting on FB and printing a copy for the noticeboard at toddler group.
