The Cardboard Boat Race returns very soon: on Saturday 16th August. It's become one of the liveliest and exciting charity events of the year - here to tell us what we have to look forward to is Darren Olivero of the organising committee, alongside William Bowman and Amy Pretty.A collaboration between Theatre Makers and Cultural Services will offer musical theatre workshops, delivered by not just anyone, but professional performer Emma Caffrey! She has a wealth of musical experience, including "Babette" in Beauty and the Beast , "Anytime Annie" in 42nd Street and "Bubbles" in Funny Girl. Erica McGrail from Theatre Makers told us what the workshops will entail.In sports Jose Mari Ruiz brought us up to speed as both Lincoln Red Imps and St Josephs gear up for their away legs of the Champions League qualifiers. Jose also told us told us how the Gibraltar basketball squad got on at the FIBA Euro Basketball Competitions, and how Zamara Espinosa will be officiating the Euro Hockey Senior Championship in Turkey.World Drowning Prevention Day is a reminder to all of us about the precautions we can take for ourselves, our families and friends in order to be able to continue enjoying our swims. Thankfully, this is not a big issue in Gibraltar – but it is something to keep aware of. We do generally have a few instances each summer where lifeguards need to get involved, usually involving youngsters or tourists. So whether for others or ourselves, it's important to be aware of the basics. As Norbert Sene of the Royal Lifesaving Society explained,And, Edd Valatka is becoming a very familiar face on the Rock; he's now 7 months into his year-long initiative, taking on different challenges every month as he generates awareness and donations for different causes. From 50km runs around the Rock, to biking to Cordoba and back; the challenges seem to be getting more and more creative. This month, he's taken on an insane fitness challenge in the name of homelessness awareness. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A new study by Royal Life Saving Australia reveals a notable drop in drowning rates, especially among young children. However, challenges remain for migrant and regional communities, with rivers and beaches still high-risk locations. Marking World Drowning Prevention Day on 25 July, a community volunteer, Harpreet Kandra, highlights that drowning remains a serious issue among migrants, including Indians, and calls for more safety initiatives to help prevent these tragic deaths. - रॉयल लाइफ सेविंग ऑस्ट्रेलिया के एक नए अध्ययन से पता चलता है कि पिछले 20 वर्षों में डूबने से होने वाली मौतों की दर में गिरावट आई है, खासकर छोटे बच्चों के बीच। हालांकि, प्रवासी और क्षेत्रीय समुदायों के लिए चुनौतियां अब भी बनी हुई हैं, और नदियां व समुद्र तट अब भी उच्च जोखिम वाले क्षेत्र बने हुए हैं। विश्व डूबना रोकथाम दिवस के मौके पर, जो हर साल 25 जुलाई को मनाया जाता है, मेलबर्न निवासी सामुदायिक स्वयंसेवक हरप्रीत कांद्रा इस मुद्दे पर प्रकाश डाल रहे हैं कि प्रवासी समुदायों, विशेष रूप से भारतीय मूल के लोगों के लिए ये क्यों एक गंभीर चिंता का विषय है, और इन दुखद घटनाओं को रोकने के लिए सुरक्षा पहलों पर बल देना क्यों ज़रूरी है।

Welcome back to the Autism Little Learners Podcast! If you haven't listened to Part 1 of this conversation on autism and water safety yet, be sure to go check that out first—it's episode #125. In that episode, I sat down with Dayna Harvey, a certified swim instructor who specializes in working with autistic children, and Andy Roszak, an emergency preparedness expert with experience at FEMA and the CDC. Together, we shared eye-opening statistics and essential first steps families can take to begin protecting their children around water. In this episode—Part 2—we're diving even deeper. You'll hear more from Dayna and Andy about why swim lessons alone aren't enough, how to use visual supports to reinforce water safety, and the critical role of community awareness in preventing drowning. Whether you're a parent, caregiver, teacher, or therapist, this conversation is full of actionable strategies and resources to help keep autistic children safe. Let's get started. Bio Andy Roszak, JD, MPA, EMT-Paramedic is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Institute for Childhood Preparedness, where he leads efforts to strengthen emergency planning, disaster recovery, and resilience across early childhood and community-based settings. With more than 20 years of experience in public health, emergency management, and health policy, Andrew has worked at the local, state, federal, and nonprofit levels-supporting initiatives that help communities prepare for, respond to, and recover from crises. Andy is a frequent contributor and subject matter expert for Sesame Street in Communities, where he supports efforts around preparedness, disaster response, and resilience for families and caregivers. A former firefighter, paramedic, and hazardous materials technician, he has also served as a Health Policy Fellow in the U.S. Senate, a senior advisor at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and as a Senior Preparedness Advisor supporting Super Bowl 46 and the Indianapolis 500. Andy is an award-winning author of the Preparing for the Unexpected book series, and his work has been recognized by organizations including the Red Cross, the City of El Paso, and Sesame Street, where he was named a Sesame Street Hero. His focus is on practical, real-world strategies to help individuals, organizations, and communities be better prepared for whatever challenges may come. Andy is the proud father of two daughters, aged 1 and 4. Dayna Harvey is a Water Safety and Drowning prevention educator as well as a Swim Lesson Teacher, who specializes in working with children with autism and their parents. She has been teaching swim lessons for the past 35 years and is certified through the Red Cross as well as a program called AutismSwim. Dayna is on a MISSION to educate and empower parents with information, strategies and hands on tools to help them keep their children safer in and around water because we MUST eradicate childhood drowning. The autism community saw more drownings in 2024 than in any year prior and that has intensified Dayna's commitment to reach more parents with her message and her methods. Dayna and the Waiting Whale kids, who she created to help engage both parents and children in the education process, have developed the "Where there is water, I will WAIT!" program and The Waiting Whales - Water Safety Kit Water Safety With Miss Dayna Links: www.WaterSafetyWithMissDayna.com www.Facebook.com/WaterSafetyWithMissDayna www.Instagram.com/WaterSafetyWithMissDayna Miss Dayna's Water Safety Kit: https://watersafetywithmissdayna.com/water-safety-kit Institute For Childhood Preparedness Links: https://www.childhoodpreparedness.org/ Free Safety-Related Social Stories: https://www.childhoodpreparedness.org/printables Takeaways Water safety is crucial for all children, especially autistic children. Visual cues and predictable routines enhance learning for children. Creating a waiting area can significantly reduce drowning risks. Parents must be fully attentive when children are around water. Consistency in teaching water safety is key to success. Using a water safety kit can help establish safe practices. Children can learn to wait before entering water environments. Swim lessons should focus on both water safety and swimming skills. Parents should evaluate their home environment for water hazards. Empowering parents with knowledge is essential for preventing drownings.

Welcome back to the Autism Little Learners Podcast. Today, I'm joined by two incredible guests—Dayna Harvey, a certified swim instructor who specializes in teaching autistic children, and Andy Roszak, an emergency preparedness expert who has worked with FEMA and the CDC. Together, we're diving into a topic that's incredibly important—and honestly, one that doesn't get talked about enough: water safety for autistic children. As a speech-language pathologist and someone who's worked closely with autistic children for over two decades, I've seen just how real the risks are. Drowning is one of the leading causes of accidental death for autistic kids, and it's something we have to bring more awareness to. In this episode, we're not just sharing facts and statistics—we're getting personal and practical. Dayna and Andy offer eye-opening insight and simple, proactive strategies that parents, caregivers, and educators can use right away. We'll talk about risk assessments, layers of protection, communication tools, and the role of community awareness in preventing tragedies. My goal with this conversation is to empower you with actionable steps so you can feel more confident and prepared when it comes to water safety. Let's work together to protect and support our little learners—not just in the classroom, but in every part of their lives.
