Live in Brisbane?
Want to be a lifesaver?
THEN WE NEED YOU!

Brisbane Lifesaving Service gives Brisbane residents the opportunity to become part of the surf lifesaving community and help keep people safe at some of Southeast Queensland’s most popular beaches.

As a volunteer member, you could patrol anywhere from the sheltered waters of Moreton Bay to the open beaches of the Sunshine Coast and the vibrant coastline of the Gold Coast. You’ll also have opportunities to support surf lifesaving clubs across the region when and where help is needed.

If you enjoy variety, meeting new people and developing practical lifesaving skills, Brisbane Lifesaving Service offers a unique way to experience different beaches, build confidence in a range of surf conditions and make a meaningful contribution to the community.

 

a role for everyone

Craving excitement, meeting new people, and a chance to make a real impact?

Many people think that surf lifesaving is all about being in the water, but that's not the case. There are plenty of roles that don't require you to get your feet wet.

Joining Brisbane Lifesaving Service offers all this and more! Here's why this opportunity should be on your radar.

only
5 hours a month

We only need 5 hours of your time ...which is one patrol a month. At lifesaving we know people have lives off the beach, so we only ask for time you can give.

you don't have to step in water

While surf lifesaving often involves water rescues, many roles don’t require you to get in the water. You can be an observer, provide first aid, or support training sessions.

building friendships
