Memo: Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) – Cessation of Volunteer Patrolling Services
Effective immediately, all patrols by volunteer surf lifesavers on NSW beaches will be cancelled for the remainder of the 2019/20 season. This unprecedented decision has been made to protect the safety and welfare of volunteer surf lifesavers from potential infection by the COVID-19 virus and to support the Government’s position in discouraging large gatherings of people on beaches across NSW.
Memo: Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) – Withdrawal of Patrolling Services Update
On Saturday 21st March 2020 the NSW Government have directed volunteer surf lifesavers and lifeguards to withdraw patrols where there are large numbers of people present, in order to comply with the Government’s ban on mass gatherings in response to the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
Additionally, surf patrol captains and club captains are being given the discretion to withdraw patrols if volunteers are concerned about their own safety, irrespective of the numbers of people on the beach.
