A Wave of Hand Sanitiser for Surf Life Saving NSW

Thanks to Good360, Surf Life Saving NSW received 8 pallets of hand sanitiser which were distributed among its 11 branches and 129 surf clubs. When told about this generous donation, Mike Hallahan of the Far South Coast Branch said, “We are thrilled to receive the donation of hand sanitiser on behalf of our clubs”.
Not only was the hand sanitiser donated but so was the transportation of the products to our headquarters in Belrose, by the good people at JJ Lawson.
Karen Byron, who accepted the hand sanitiser on behalf of the Sydney Branch and its 15 clubs said, “How fortunate are we to receive this!”.
Chief Executive of Surf Life Saving NSW, Steven Pearce said that the safety of volunteer lifesavers is paramount, particularly because they are frontline first responders in an emergency service charged with the responsibility of lifesaving and coastal aquatic rescue.
“Not only has COVID-19 presented many challenges in terms of our operations, but it has also had a financial impact on our 129 Surf Life Saving clubs who have to comply with new health and safety regulations and also manage member safety.”
President of Surf Life Saving NSW, George Shales OAM, said the donation could not have come at a better time. “The donated product will provide much-needed budget relief and additional personal safety assurance for our clubs. It's just one less thing they need to worry about and we are delighted to be able to facilitate this for them. Thanks to all."
