Police are urging people not to jump in the river Thames in the hot weather

Last Friday, an event was organised on social media which saw a group of school children gathered by Teddington Lock.

Officers received reports of dangerous behaviour such as jumping from Teddington Lock bridge.

Residents are reminded that jumping into the Thames is not safe as the strong currents carry a significant risk of cold-water shock.
