Did you know that on average 160 people drown in Ireland each year? Most of these tragic deaths happen inland, in rivers and lakes, on farms and in and around homes and these accidents are preventable.

Wexford’s Nipper Lifesavers (aged 8-14) – Ireland’s Lifeguards of the future - display their medals and certificates after an action filled day of simulated Lifesaving competitions at the Leinster Provincial Nipper Lifesaving Championships on Curracloe Beach Aug 21st.
