Honours and Awards
Royal Life Saving Society - Australia is committed to recognising the efforts of its many dedicated members and volunteers. Their service can be recognised by the National Board of Directors through the use of the Commonwealth and Australian Honours Award Systems or by the individual States and Territory Member Organisations.

For more than a century, the Royal Life Saving Society has been shaped and sustained by the quiet dedication of stakeholders who give their time, skills and leadership in service of others. Across pools, rivers, lakes and communities, their contribution reaches far beyond individual acts of service—building safer environments, strengthening community capability, and passing on lifesaving knowledge from one generation to the next. The legacy of these stakeholders is measured not only in lives saved, but in the confidence, resilience and care they foster in communities across Australia, reflecting a shared commitment to compassion, responsibility and the enduring belief that every life is worth protecting.
