Shoreham sea tragedy claims family of three

🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
This preventable tragedy underscores the stark reality that UK beaches lack consistent safety measures, leaving even experienced swimmers at risk in unpredictable conditions.
💡 Why it matters
The deaths of three family members and critical injury of a child should immediately prompt local councils to review beach safety protocols and emergency response times.

Sara El-Khawas, 14, and her parents died after getting into difficulty while swimming off Shoreham-by-Sea, West Sussex. A younger girl remains in critical condition in hospital, and police confirmed the family had traveled from London for a swim.
