World Drowning Prevention Day 2024
On 25 July, communities from across the globe came together to highlight World Drowning Prevention Day.
A special thank you to everyone who supported World Drowning Prevention Day and raised awareness across Australia.
Drowning is preventable. By coming together, we can raise awareness of the importance of drowning prevention and eliminate preventable drowning deaths.
Our work doesn’t stop here. Please continue to share our messages to help us create a water-loving nation free from drowning.
Anyone can drown, no one should.
LIVES NOT NUMBERS
Every year, Royal Life Saving produces the National Drowning Report, examining the factors that contribute to drowning deaths in Australia by examining who, where, when and how people have drowned in Australian waterways. We are ever mindful that these stories in this report are of real people whose lives have been lost or impacted by drowning. We seek to advocate and collaborate to reduce the impact of drowning on the community.
Prepare for the unexpected.
Kids will be kids. And we love them all. Cute, funny, quiet, wild, angelic, studious, all of them with their own unique personalities, all of them unpredictable. One day the side kick and the curious one the next, with everything in between. Which is why we love them even more!
But they have one thing in common: Kids can’t help themselves around water, you need to. Keep Watch.
OUR MAJOR PARTNER
