Members of the Rotary Club of Royal Hua Hin led by the Water safety chair CP Alan Cooper, Rotarian Kamolthip Sangsripet Pettit, and President Phil Lawrence welcomed the Mayor of Hua Hin Mr Nopporn Wutthikul, Mr Theeraphan Jadpol who is the Director of Public Health and Environment presented the certificates of successful training to the instructors.
Following the successful training of 10 volunteer Instructors from Hua Hin by an Australian team of professional instructors in Phuket at the end of February and the beginning of March, the first pilot course of the Water Safety Drowning Prevention program was run with 55 students from the Ban Bo Fai school.
It is anticipated that this pilot course will be the start of a successful project here in Hua Hin to help raise the awareness of the dangers of swimming in water, and how to understand how to protect themselves.
Thanks to the support from Rotarian Patrick Franssen who allowed the course to be run at his Greenway Hua Hin Resort.
