Open Water Championships are underway across Ireland this weekend 🏊‍♀️🌊 For many, it’s more than a race - it’s a sport that builds confidence, community, and real-world lifesaving skills. From local beaches to world championships, the people and the passion keep bringing everyone back. Best of luck to all competitors this season 👏 #OpenWaterChamps #WSI #LifesavingSport #SurfLifesavingIreland

Rivers connect land to sea, carrying nutrients, life and now, plastic litter. Once lifelines for communities and biodiversity, rivers are pathways for pollution. With the right action, we can change course and #BeatPlasticPollution: worldenvironmentday.global/
