Clovelly member Zachary Wilde ROM Branch winner September

Congratulations to Clovelly SLSC member Zachary Wilde who has been recognised for Branch September Rescue of the Month winner. Zachary assisted a member of the public who had collapsed and struck his head on the pavement in the streets of Randwick on 11 September 2020. Zachary is a 16 year old BM holder who took control of the situation assisting the unconscious patient with care and support till the ambulance took the patient away some 40 minutes later. The accolades Zach received from bystanders, local business is a credit to this young man and the skills learnt as a Surf Lifesaver. Well done Zach.

SAREX Randwick Area

Saturday 12 September marked the first district focused Search and Rescue exercise for club call-out teams and Support Operations resources.
Working together, the exercise focused on familiarising and finessing their call-out processes and capabilities.
The exercise was held at Gordon’s Bay and involved UAV’s, Inflatable Rescue Boats, Surf Rescue 30, Rescue Water Craft and our Duty Officer Team. Randwick City Council Lifeguards also participated in the exercise.
This initiative will continue to be rolled out across the SLSS Areas this season and no doubt will be enjoyed and prove valuable to all participants as it did on Saturday!
