Hi, I’m Louise

Water is my happy place, my mission is to make it yours too!

I have over 30 years of experience to share with you. I am a Scuba Diving Instructor, a Swim England Tutor, an Open Water Swimming Coach, a Swimming Teacher and first became a lifeguard at the age of 18.

As A Swim England Educator I train the next generation of swimming teachers. I have educated over 2000 teachers, if they all teach 4 hours per week, this is indirectly up to 80,000 children per week that may be influenced by me.

Why I do what I do…

Unfortunately, the water can sometimes be a scary place, things can change quickly and what starts out as a fun day out can result in tragedy.  I suppose the law of averages states the more you do something, the more likely something going bad is going to happen.

I have experienced the impact drowning can have on family, friends and emergency services. The key question I have always asked myself is could this loss of life have been prevented? What could have been done differently?

I believe drowning can be preventable, if people make informed safe decisions, understand the risks, know how to float and what to do in an emergency.

I have extensive experience working with numerous professional bodies and organisations, including Swim England and Level Water.

My work spans both the UK and internationally, where I collaborate with Cobra Sports Services, a Swim England training centre, in Dubai.

Why Water Safety Matters?

Research has proven that wearing a life jacket can increase your chances of survival by up to four times if you’re immersed in cold water.
Learning how to float could save your life.
Many people who enter the water do not plan to do so, rescuing a pet is one of the main causes of drowning.
In the UK over 400 people a year die to drowning.
Never enter the water to rescue anyone, always throw something to them.
Knowing the risks could be the difference between a fun day out and a tragic accident
Do you know how cold the water is? Even on a hot day the water can be really cold, this can cause your body to go into shock
