In May 2014, tragedy struck when two boys lost their father in a drowning accident whilst on holiday in the Jamaican fishing village of Treasure Beach, where the family had spent many previous family holidays. Early one morning, the elder boy was paddling when a riptide pulled him out to sea. His father raced into the sea and saved his life, but then drowned before his eyes. In February 2015 Charlotte accompanied the family to Treasure Beach, where she helped teach the elder boy his confidence to go back into the sea. Charlotte saw at once that Treasure Beach was a close community and a very special place, and it was there that she watched the boys begin to recover their spirit for life. In February 2016, Charlotte returned again with the family, this time as a friend. She returned again, this time to work as a volunteer in local nurseries and the primary school. One tragic consequence of this has been the number of lives the village has lost to the ocean in drowning accidents. Charlotte and Stacey delivered this swim program to 87 children in Treasure Beach in 2017 and this was a massive success. We are heading out for 6 months this year, and hope that we can teach a lot more children, and even teenagers! Our plans are big, help us reach them.
