## Resource

A heartbreaking tragedy unfolded Saturday night at Rossall Beach as a couple in their sixties bravely tried to save their dog from the water—only for the woman, 68-year-old Theresa Wheelhouse, to lose her life. Her husband, initially in critical condition, is now recovering. Police and emergency crews responded swiftly, and while the incident appears accidental, an inquest is set for October. With warmer weather approaching, authorities are sounding the alarm about open water dangers, urging everyone to stay safe and seek guidance from trusted resources like Lancashire Fire and Rescue and the Royal Life Saving Society.
