Support Our Lifesavers - Help Us Keep Point Lonsdale Beach Safe

Lifesaving clubs across Australia rely heavily on donations, sponsorship, and community support to continue their vital work.

Our dedicated volunteer lifesavers patrol Point Lonsdale beach, ensuring locals and visitors alike can enjoy the ocean safely. Behind every patrol is a significant investment in equipment, training, and education, much of which is made possible thanks to generous contributions from people like you.
