There may not be a truer definition of ‘beyond the flags’ lifesaving than that of Greg Tuchin’s first aid assistance rendered some 8,000km from his home club of Woonona SLSC and, perhaps more interestingly, more than 30 degrees Celsius below what he’s used to in the peak of summer.
22 of the state’s brightest young lifesavers will come together on the Northern Beaches in April for the Junior Lifesaver of the Year (JLOTY) Program.

Despite predictions of possible ‘unsettled weather’ across parts of coastal NSW to end 2024, volunteer lifesavers and lifeguards are remaining vigilant ahead of what has traditionally proven one of the most challenging and dangerous times of the year.
With the holiday season upon us and hundreds of thousands of beachgoers set to visit the coastline, volunteer lifesavers and lifeguards are reminding the public that alcohol and the ocean never mix and the safest place for them this summer is at a patrolled beach between the red and yellow flags.
NSW volunteer surf lifesavers can continue to focus on the safety of the community this summer following the announcement that Ingenia Holiday Parks has extended its support of Surf Life Saving NSW for a further two years.
