    Now the weather is warming up, we spend more time in our backyards with friends and family.

    It’s the perfect time to take a minute or two to ensure your backyard swimming pool is safe for children.

    Royal Life Saving Australia is targeting every home pool owner with a basic reminder to check, fix and maintain their home pool.
