BRACKLINN FALLS, CALLANDER
Police in Forth Valley, along with other emergency service and rescue partners, attended to the Bracklinn Falls area of Callander on Thursday 1st August following a report of two people who were experiencing difficulty in the water.
Two women, aged 23 and 25 were traced and rescued from the water.
... Sadly, the 23-year-old woman was pronounced dead at the scene.
The 25-year-old woman was not injured and was assessed at the scene by the Scottish Ambulance Service but did not require hospital treatment.

Our thoughts are with her family and friends at this difficult time.

☀️HOT WEATHER - WATER SAFETY☀️
Today (25th July), is going to be one of the hottest days of the year so far and because the schools are off, a lot of children and young adults will want to cool off and enjoy playing in and around water.
There were 585 accidental drownings in the UK & NI last year, with a disproportionate number of those being male (7 males to 1 female), and 1 in 5 are children aged 14 or under.
... Rivers and beaches are the most common areas for accidental drownings, however you need to be aware of the dangers of all bodies of water, including recreational pools and quarries. Natural water will have hidden dangers that are not obvious from the surface and the water can be very cold.
If you or your children are venturing into or around water on these hot days, please be aware of the dangers and stay safe.
For more advice or information, please got to our website at https://www.scotland.police.uk/…/person al-saf…/summer-safety or alternatively check out the Royal Life Saving Society UK http://ow.ly/rBLp50vb82T
