#ROTM // The lifesaver behind a major rescue on Sydneyโs Northern Beaches in January believes the efforts of herself and her patrol team should act as a reminder that swimming where there are no flags in challenging surf is a recipe for danger.
The bravery of Saskia Rundle-Trowbridge, her Inflatable Rescue Boat driver, Adam Kovac (Warriewood SLSC), and two members from Mona Vale Surf Life Saving Club Inc, has been acknowledged by being awarded the Surf Life Saving NSW Rescue of the Month for January.
