If you're going to the coast ....
Update for those going to the coast
In England, now more than ever people need to respect our coastline.
Whether you’re local or not, experienced around the water or a novice, the sea can still catch you out. Beaches may not be lifeguarded. Social distancing must be observed. If you get into trouble call 999 and ask for the coastguard and we will come to your aid.
But coronavirus hasn’t gone away and we all need to follow the rules. Remember your choices might put people, including yourself and frontline responders, at risk. Take extra care in these extraordinary times. #StayAlert
Don’t forget though, in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, nothing has changed. Give the coast a miss. #StayHomeSaveLives
