The coroner's concerns

  1. 1. inadequate signage

    “The inadequacy of the signage”
  2. 2. difficult to read danger sign

    “The Danger sign by the relevant groyne was difficult to read”
  3. 3. previous teenage drowning fatality

    “there had been a previous teenage drowning fatality at Clacton beach near the pier,”
  4. 4. small text on beach information notice

    “The Beach Information notice on Clacton's West Beach contains a great deal of important information for beach users but some of the information 1 was written in small text and hence difficult to read”
  5. 5. beach patrol officer unable to discern incident

    “The beach patrol officer was 395 metres away from the fatality incident and was unable even with the use of binoculars to discern the nature of the incident”
  6. 6. lack of liaison with RNLI

    “Perhaps more liaison with the RNLI which provides beach safety measures on some beaches would benefit the council's efforts to provide beach safety”
