HTH partners with the National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI)

HTH, a leading provider of pool care products, is proud to announce a strategic partnership with the National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) to raise awareness about pool safety.

The Festive Season is a time of joy and celebration, and many families choose to spend their holidays by the pool or beach. While these moments create
lasting memories, it is crucial to prioritize safety to ensure a happy and accident-free holiday season.

‘We are proud to announce our partnership with NSRI to promote pool safety during the Festive Season, and beyond. Our goal at HTH is to ensure the entire pool ecosystem is well cared for, and that means also ensuring our consumers are equipped with pool safety knowledge.’

Elsabe Venter, Marketing at HTH

‘Safety around the swimming pool over the holiday period should be top of mind for all pool owners. Drowning is silent. If you can’t see your children and visitors in the water, you will not know that they are in difficulty. It is also important to remember that when consuming alcohol and supervising children swimming, your attention will be compromised.’

NSRI CEO Dr Cleeve Robertson

Key Pool Safety Tips for the Festive Season

1. Supervision: Always ensure that there is a responsible adult actively
supervising children around the pool.
2. Barriers: Install proper barriers, such as pool nets, fences and gates, to
restrict access to the pool area.
3. Learn CPR: Knowing CPR can be a lifesaver in emergency situations.
Consider taking a CPR course to be prepared.
4. Water Awareness: Educate children about the importance of water
safety, including the dangers of running or rough play around the pool.

Through this partnership, HTH and NSRI aim to make a positive impact on water safety awareness and contribute to safer festivities for families across South Africa.
