Candice Warner recalls the 'terrifying' moment her seven-year-old daughter was swept out to sea in a rip and had to be rescued


Candice Warner has shared the scary moment her daughter was swept out to sea.

Just a week after her husband David Warner's announced his retirement from his Test cricket career at the SCG, Candice is using her profile to help with a new campaign aiming to reduce drowning deaths on the country's hazardous, unpatrolled beaches. Working with Surf Life Saving Australia, Candice revealed there were 29 deaths in rip currents on Australian beaches last year alone - 16 per cent over the 10-year average. Warner's daughter, aspiring surf lifesaver Ivy, said: 'You don't need to become an expert - the best way to avoid trouble is to swim between the red and yellow flags at patrolled beaches.'
