This platform provides essential information and tools to support our members through every stage of their journey, ensuring their safety, growth, and satisfaction. Here, you'll find valuable resources, guidance, and best practices tailored to foster a strong, supportive community.

Together, we can uphold the values of Surf Life Saving Queensland and ensure the longevity and success of our vibrant community.

How can we support you?

Peer Support - Our Peer Support Network is made up of lifesavers who are trained to support their peers. If you are involved in a serious incident your Patrol Captain will include in what we call a 'hot debrief'. This debrief will happen on the day of the incident and you will be advised that one of our friendly Peer Support Officers will be in touch within 48 hours.

Our Peer Support Officers will check in with you to see how your feeling following the incident and will provide you with tools and tips on how to manage the after effects. If you require additional support, they will also provide this information.

A Peer Support Officer is a lifesaver just like you and is there to be a helping hand.
