Laguna Lang Co have generously offered to support part of our Swimming for Safety programme this year in Phu Loc. To promote Swimming for Safety and our partnership, Laguna Lang Co and Hue Help organised a fun promotional swimming event in Laguna’s beautiful Banyan Tree Resort. The event was a huge success with 4o children from local schools taking part in a swimming lesson, relay race, and games that involved pro-athletes competing in Laguna Lang Co’s Triathlon on the 29th March. The pro-athletes were assistants for four of our swimming tutors who were trained to become swimming teachers in our previous Swimming for Safety programmes. This event was a great opportunity for Hue Help to raise awareness of drowning prevention in Thua Thien Hue and our Swimming for Safety programme. International media publicised this event and you can see a video clip here that was screened internationally on VTV4 (watch from 8.22): http://vtv4.vn/videodetail/7548 .
