The parents of Thandolwethu Ndlovu, who was 15 when he died, have made a hard-hitting video about the dangers of swimming in open water.

Thandolwethu, also known as Thando, went into the River Trent while playing with friends near Swarkestone Bridge, in Derbyshire, on 21 July 2021. He got into difficulty and his body was found by a police diving team the next day.

His mother Nombulelo Ndlovu has been speaking to Heidi Booth about teaming up with Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service to raise awareness.
