Ice safety message and resource from Warwickshire Fire & Rescue Service

Following the tragic incident in Solihull where four children fell through ice on a lake, and reports of young people seen playing on ice in Warwickshire since, Warwickshire Fire & Rescue Service (WFRS) would like to reiterate some key safety messages for spending time near water in icy conditions.

This article - https://www.warwickshire.gov.uk/news/article/3661/help-us-to-protect-you-and-your-loved-ones - shares our plea to all to stay away from frozen water and talk to children and young people about the risks.

In addition, this resource from the RLSS - https://bit.ly/rlss-ice-safety - can be used to help educate children about the dangers associated with icy water, an essential part of keeping them safe.
