Child Friendly Warwickshire - Be Safe
Spending time at our country parks is a fantastic way to get to know your outdoor world, understand some of the risks of different environments, and learn how to keep safe. Here are a few things to keep in mind as you become an expert explorer:
- Stay well away from the water’s edge – hidden dangers like debris and diseases lurk beneath the surface, and cold water shock can take you by surprise with deadly consequences!
- Always make sure a trusted adult knows where you are going and have a reliable means of communication, like a fully charged phone.
- Fill up your outdoor skills toolkit! Learn first aid, basic bushcraft, and how to read maps and natural signs in the environment. Our events and ranger-led sessions can help build those skills.
