Our waterways are the perfect spot for a brisk walk on a spring day. It's also a great place to do some wildlife spotting! 🔎 🦢 When visiting our canal, always stay clear from the water's edge and dial 999 or 112 in an emergency. ☎️ Let's be #CanalCareful
Today is the first ever World Drowning Prevention Day. Most people who end up in difficulty in the water didn't ever intend to be there.

Summer is great time to enjoy our canals.
Today, along with Alan Moir 🇺🇦 & Cllr Colette McDiarmid, I met the Forth & Clyde Canal Society and Lowland Canal Association to promote @ScottishCanals' #CanalCareful campaign and discuss the importance of preserving our canal network.
Scotland's canal network can be a beautiful place to enjoy summer ☀️
However, open water swimming can be dangerous & canals are not safe for this due to dangers under the water.
Remember to stay #canalcareful & follow Scottish Canals safety advice 🌊

We ❤️ to see our furry friends out & about enjoying the canal network. With the cold weather forecast, please be #canalcareful & keep pets away from the water's edge, which may be frozen over & unsafe for small paws or hooves to wander on. 🐶 🐱🐴 RoSPA Scotland WaterSafetyScotland
It's getting hot! ☀️
As tempting as the canals look for a dip to cool off, please be #CanalCareful and remember that there can be many hidden dangers under the surface of the water.
Read Scottish Canals safety messaging and guidance on their website scottishcanals.co.uk/canal-careful/
Important message on the hidden dangers of swimming in canals to be shared with our children, young people and families.

Inverness is lucky to have the brilliant Caledonian Canal to enjoy this summer. But canals can be dangerous, especially for children.
Please watch this video, and teach any children you know to be #CanalCareful .
