A special Water Safety event will take place on Sunday, 8th June, as part of the state visit of French President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron to Monaco.

From 9:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Centre Nautique Albert II at Stade Louis II, organisers will host pool activities to raise awareness about drowning prevention and teach lifesaving techniques.

The event forms part of the Princess Charlène of Monaco Foundation’s Water Safety programme, which supports projects aimed at raising awareness of drowning prevention and teaching lifesaving to children and adults in all types of water environments.

To offer activities adapted to each environment, the Foundation relies on a network of local associations and national rescue societies.

The water safety activities, whether theoretical or practical, teach participants to learn and apply the prevention triptych: identify, alert, intervene.

In order to attend, children must bring their own swimsuits. Registration is also mandatory as spots are limited.

To register, call +377 98 98 99 99 or email contact@fpcm.mc
