An important message from the SLSA President
Monday 26 September, 2011
As you may have seen on Sunday evening, the Channel 7 program, Sunday Night, aired a story on the death of Saxon Bird at the 2010 Australian Surf Life Saving Championships.
As I wrote to you previously, SLSA decided not to participate in the story and instead issued a statement to Channel 7, which can be viewed here.
Surf Life Saving and International Development
Surf Life Saving in Australia has provided support and expertise to many allied lifesaving organisations across the globe.
