Meet the man helping to cut the number of river drownings in Galway
The River Corrib in Galway is fast-flowing and dangerous. In the past, because of a lack of communication and co-ordination between local agencies, when a person entered the river, the RNLI couldn’t get there in time. Galway RNLI Lifeboat Operations Manager Michael Swan was determined to change that.
He talks about working with other local emergency services and agencies to put an effective, co-ordinated search and rescue plan in place. With innovative technology, improved communication, and awareness and prevention schemes, the RNLI are now able to launch to the rescue in time – and help save more lives.
200 Voices is produced by Adventurous Audio for the RNLI
