Greater awareness urgently needed to save lives, BSA chair says after Downing Street meeting
The chair of the UK’s Black Swimming Association (BSA) has said greater awareness of water safety is urgently needed in minority communities to save lives.
After recent data showed that children in England from black, Asian and minority ethnic communities were 3.5 times more likely to drown than their white counterparts, the BSA organised a roundtable discussion on the issue at 10 Downing Street with concerned groups this week.
