Cold water swimming ❄
Remember: Be seen, acclimatise slowly and never go alone.
If you find yourself in difficulty, remember to #FloatToLive. Call 999 or 112 and ask for the coastguard.
Save and share our safety tips 💙

Hooray for @LargsRNLI volunteer Claire & her mum Jane who ran the #GreatNorthRun. 🙌
Jane says: 'You never know when you might need the lifeboat & they rely on fundraising to keep #SavingLivesAtSea.’
#Thanks to everyone who uses their time, passion & energy to #fundraise. 🧡

Claire from @LargsRNLI told us she got some treats along the running route including fudge (yum). 🍬
This years @LondonMarathon was her 11th marathon, ten of them in support of us. What a hero!

A little change of pace for me today when rather than being the assessor, I was the one being assessed!
Delighted to report that I successfully passed my @rnli Lifeboat Press Officer Assessment ☺️

The pagers stayed quiet as @LargsRNLI crew member Jennifer tied the knot.
Other crew members, who had been out to aid a motorboat, thankfully returned in time to form a guard of honour for the happy couple.
Congratulations Jennifer & Michael 🎉

Today we’re relaunching our #FloatToLive campaign to remind people what to do if they get into difficulty in the water this summer. If you find yourself in trouble, lean back, using your arms and legs to keep you afloat, until you’ve got control of your breathing.

On a brisk spring afternoon, the pagers sounded for the crew of @Largsrnli; two paddleboarders had been blown out to sea by strong winds. Thankfully, our volunteer crew were able to pull both paddleboarders to safety.

Thanks to Mark from @RNLI, for running an in depth, educational and interesting RNLI Casualty Care course. Hopefully, it's never required but ready when required. Thanks to the team at Helensburgh Station for the hospitality and support. @LargsRNLI ⚓🚨🩹

With #StormBarra on the way, 60-70mph gusts are expected in coastal locations. #RespectTheWater by staying well back from the water's edge and in any coastal emergency dial 999 for the Coastguard. If you end up in the water, stay calm and #FloatToLive.
