A child has died after falling ill at an indoor pool complex at the Center Parcs Longleat resort in Wiltshire.
The young boy had been playing with other children at the resort's Subtropical Swimming Paradise, when he is thought to have collapsed and become unresponsive.
Center Parcs staff provided CPR, with the assistance of medically trained members of the public, until paramedics arrived. An air ambulance was called, but despite the efforts to save him, the young guest passed away.
The incident took place on 17 August.
In a statement, Center Parcs said: "We are deeply saddened by the tragic news that a young guest passed away after becoming unwell while at Longleat Forest.
“Our thoughts are with the family at this difficult time. We are continuing to offer our support to the family and to our employees who provided immediate assistance.
