Thank you to Cape Town's Ogilvy & Mather team for the work that they are doing on the NSRI BeBright awareness campaign. Wearing bright colours makes you so much easier to see when you are out paddling. And if you need help it makes it much easier for our Sea Rescue crews to spot you. Thanks also to John Hishin who has kindly donated photographs of Dawid to raise awareness of paddling safety issues.83002-Be Brighter Campaign -Press-Print 225x170 V3.indd Dawid Mocke as photographed by John Hishin for the Ogilvy / NSRI BeBright campaign.
