Today marked the 1st World Drowning Prevention event to ever be hosted by a Head of Government.
At the Prime Ministers Office, Number 10 Downing Street, The Black Swimming Association (BSA) was honoured to be at the centre of this groundbreaking day of major significance for water safety and drowning prevention.
Who would have thought that 3 years ago when Seren Jones, Danielle Obe, Alice Dearing and myself cofounded the BSA, it would lead us here🙏🏾
Massive thanks to all our partners and to everyone who has supported us along this journey.
Together, let’s continue to save lives👊🏾

Winning the award last year was an amazing experience and one I can highly recommend.
You can nominate yourself or promote a woman in your network.
Go on - you know some amazing people who deserve to be recognised and would be a great role model for future leaders.
