Surf Life Saving is committed to having an inclusive and diverse membership that reflects our community. We are an all-inclusive organisation that protects, educates, prepares and embraces everyone no matter who they are, their background or skill level. Not every member needs to be a patrolling member—a diverse range of skills, personalities and strengths is a great benefit to an SLSC.
Refer to the SLSNSW Diversity and Inclusion website for more information and support resources in relation to:

  • Members with a disability
  • Providing a safe and secure environment for their LGBTIQ+ members
  • Respecting Traditional Owners and the continuing connection of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples to country
  • Strengthening your SLSC’s links to local culturally and linguistically diverse multicultural communities
  • The benefits of gender diversity and supporting members with diverse sexualities and genders.

Also, refer to the SLSA Member Protection Policy that provides a code of conduct and relevant guidelines forming the basis of appropriate and ethical conduct, which everyone must abide by for member protection
