Olympian Tom Daley takes a break from diving in this new charity film from the Royal Life Saving Society UK.
Don’t Drink and Dive was created by the Royal Life Saving Society UK to raise awareness of the increased danger of swimming after drinking alcohol.
In the film, Daley, who had been about to take a dip after drinking, walks away from the pool after realising the shocking statistic that 1 in 4 UK drownings involved alcohol.
It’s always great to see celebrity names getting involved with charities but it’s a real win to have Tom Daley, a professional diver, warning people away from drinking and diving.
The film is a finalist in the Smiley Charity Film Awards, the world's largest cause-based film campaign. To support the film, and the Royal Life Saving Society UK, you can follow this link to the Smiley Charity Film Awards Website where you can learn more and donate.
