Services & Advice

For Operators, Owners and Event Managers

Recreational and Leisure Sector – We provide bespoke training and advice for organisations who have employees or volunteers working near, on or in coastal and inland water and who may be involved in providing water based activities for the public. (Water parks, Surf Parks, Lakes, Activity Centres)

Business Sector – If you have employees who may be required to work close to or in water we can provide tailor made training for risk assessment and safety awareness from basic level up to exposure to flood. Our National Safety Officer can provide expert advice on development of risk assessments for your specific needs leading to appropriate Operating Policies and emergency plans in accordance with all the legal requirements and to conform with current known best practice.

Our specialised training covers lifeguarding, swift water rescue, surf rescue, rescue boat operations (either surf, fast water or offshore) basic first aid, First Aid at Work, First Responder and trauma along with technical rescue operations.

Event Safety – If you are an owner or organiser for events such as open water swimming , Triathlon, Kayaking, Rowing, Sailing or Kite Surfing then water safety cover should be top of your priority list.  We now offer a fully comprehensive and fit for purpose qualification issued by a National Life Saving organisation that fully covers all aspects of the safety management of your event.

The SLSGB Event Water Safety Manager Award – Covers all aspects of preparation, planning and the management of an event water safety team and if the worst happens, how to call in and work with the emergency services.  If you don’t run your event to this standard you may be lucky (and we hope that you are) but if something bad happens that could have been avoided, will you have failed to provide a proper duty of care to those who are competing? Contact us now for details of how to make your event safety managed to the highest professional standards.
