’The Queen Shares Memories of Achieving Life Saving Award During Video Call’ Her Majesty The Queen, Patron of the Royal Life Saving Society, has shared memories of achieving her own lifesaving qualification as a young girl during a video call with the Royal Life Saving Society. The Society works across 30 Commonwealth nations with the aim of eliminating preventable death by drowning, promoting water safety, and delivering lifesaving and lifeguarding education. The Royal Life Saving Society was founded in London in 1891, in response to the hundreds of preventable drownings happening in the UK. Drowning remains one of the biggest causes of preventable death in the world today, with an estimated 235,000 deaths every year, of which 90% occur in low and middle income countries. #TheQueen #QueenElizabeth #RoyalFamily
