Surf Life Saving WA We save lives, keep the beach safe and work in the community to teach vital First Aid and beach safety skills. www.mybeach.com.au

Surf Life Saving in Western Australia is a volunteer based not-for-profit community service organisation, providing an essential educational and emergency rescue service to all users of West Australian beaches. Surf Life Saving is a part of the history, fabric and future of this country. It represents the lifestyle, values and beliefs of the Australian culture. It protects life, it saves life, it

promotes life. We create a safe environment in and around our beaches, through patrols on, in and above the shore and through education and training programs. Surf Life Saving is the largest volunteer movement of its kind in Australia and exists only through community donations, fundraising and corporate sponsorship. Surf Life Saving Western Australia comprises a State centre, 31 surf life saving clubs, support operations teams on the water and in the air and over 21,500 members who are all committed to saving lives and positively impacting on their local communities.

We are now two weeks into the Women in Powercraft initiative, and what a response it’s been!πŸ’ͺ

This year, we received 32 Expressions of Interest from 11 clubs, spanning from Dampier to Busselton.

For the first time, the initiative was also opened up to Powercraft Trainers and Assessors, with 11 EOIs for Trainer and 2 for Assessor received.

With such a great response, we’re excited to be delivering two metropolitan training sessions one in the north and one south, as well as taking the initiative to Dampier.

It’s fantastic to see so many women putting their hands up to develop their skills and take the next step in their powercraft journey.

Thank you to the wonderful clubs who have provided their resources and support for this program!
