We have received the following message from RLSS. If you’re aware of the location of any public water rescue equipment, please follow the final link to help populate the register:

“You may have seen recently that RLSS UK and GoodSAM have partnered to develop a Water Rescue Equipment – Life Saving Map. The map plots Public Rescue Equipment (PRE), including Perry Buoys, rescue poles, and throw lines along the rivers, canals, coast and waterways of the UK and Ireland to assist in the case of an emergency incident. 

We have worked hard to make it as quick and easy as possible for people to both register and report missing/ damaged equipment to ensure everyone using the outdoors can participate in this scheme.

We would be extremely grateful if you could help us reach our target of 50,000 pieces of Public Rescue Equipment (PRE) by the end of 2024.

More information about the project and how to get involved can be found here:
