Since the start of the holiday season, there have been zero diving-related accidents at the popular Harmony Park Resort thanks largely to the efforts of Echoes of Hope, a group of paralysed individuals all injured in diving accidents over the years.
Council’s Parks and Recreation Department is keen to work with the “Echoes of Hope” group to contribute to visitor safety and awareness on the dangers of diving at Harmony Park resort.
A group of at least five paraplegics in Strand all have one thing in common – they were paralysed after diving off platforms into the water, most of these at the popular Harmony Park Resort on the border of Strand and Gordon’s Bay.
