Need Lifeguards?
We provide a voluntary lifeguard service for charity and community events. They key to having us at your event is advance notice.
If you are interested in speaking with us please email us and we will arrange to meet with you.
We will start by evaluating your needs to ensure that we can meet them. We will then appoint a head Lifeguard and liason who will be reponsible for logistics and finally we will work with you on emergency planning and liason with other rescue services where necessary. The advance work allows us to ensure that a risk assessment is conducted and that your event runs smoothly.
Our service is entirely voluntary.

Not old enough?No problem Age is never a problem if you are not old enough you can still learn how to use the ski, spineboards, and just about everything else. Its all about learning and having some fun. A good place to start is joining the open water programme. You can join from eight years up - all you need is a brightly coloured cap and the safety briefing! |
