The National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) is the charity that saves lives on South African waters. The Festive Season is a time of joy and celebration, and many families choose to spend their holidays by the pool or beach.
While these moments create lasting memories, it is crucial to prioritise safety to ensure a happy and accident-free holiday season.
Elsabe Venter, marketing at HTH, says, 'We are proud to announce our partnership with NSRI to promote pool safety during the Festive Season, and beyond.
“Our goal at HTH is to ensure the entire pool ecosystem is well cared for, and that means also ensuring our consumers are equipped with pool safety knowledge"
NSRI CEO Dr Cleeve Robertson adds, "Safety around the swimming pool over the holiday period should be top of mind for all pool owners. Drowning is silent. If you can’t see your children and visitors in the water, you will not know that they are in difficulty."
Robertson adds: “It is also important to remember that when consuming alcohol and supervising children swimming, your attention will be compromised.”
Through this partnership, HTH and NSRI aim to make a positive impact on water safety awareness and contribute to safer festivities for families across South Africa.
The campaign emphasises key pool safety tips for the Festive Season such as:
