NEW VOLUNTEERS are being sought to join the RNLI’s Water Safety Advisers, whose role involves engaging with members of the public about the dangers of tidal cut-off at Sully Island.
The rocky causeway between Sully Island and the mainland becomes covered by the tide roughly three hours before high tide.
As a result, the causeway becomes submerged quickly and can leave people trapped on the island or swept into the water.
Core responsibilities of the Water Safety Adviser role are centred around providing advice to members of the public and helping people enjoy the Vale of Glamorgan coastline safely, particularly at Sully Island.
The role is suited to people with good communication skills and either some experience of public speaking or the desire to gain confidence in this area.
A keen interest in improving water safety is important, and experience of a coastal environment along with local water-based activities is desirable.
Successful applicants will receive training to fulfil their volunteer role and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses will be reimbursed.
The RNLI says the role will also provide volunteers with the opportunity to have fun, meet new people and join a motivated team who are making a difference.
Applications close on Sunday 17th March. For further information and to apply for the role, please visit here.
