Two colourful characters have joined the RNLI's campaign to keep young people informed about the work of the lifeboats and to help them stay safe in and around the water.

Jet (right) and Drip, two Water Safety Sprites, help children aged eight work through the activities in a specially-designed Water Safety pack.

Each set of activities is based around the letters in the word 'SPLASHED' with the first four letters highlighting the fourpoint Water Safety Code: Spot the dangers Pick up advice Learn how to help Always go out together - don't go alone The other four letters help them remember the code: Sea sense Have fun Emergency Don't forget the four-point Water Safety Code The different activities include word squares, designing and making things, emergency code messages, creating stories, a board game and even carrying out a risk assessment in a fun way.
