With a rise in beach/water users and water crafts within Guernsey - do you think the main beaches should be patrolled by fully Qualified Beach Lifeguards? Beach Lifeguards are employed worldwide to promote safety on the beaches and in the ocean. Beach Lifeguards have proven a high asset to the everyday beach user from a weaver fish sting to a major ocean rescue. With numbers of beach and oceans users increasing at an alarming rate, why is there no Beach Lifeguards patrolling the beaches in Guernsey? In just this year (2013) - 12 incidents have been recorded at Vazon Bay alone, many of them beach related. If you think we need Beach Lifeguards to patrol the main beaches during peak season to promote a safe environment for all, please sign this partition.

I honestly never thought this would gain so much speed and it feels like people are finally realizing just how dangerous Vazon can be sometimes. My head is honestly spinning reading through these stories about the near misses but it gives me so much energy to keep going with this.

12 incidents just at Vazon is pretty scary. get some guards on duty before we have a real tragedy happen.
