Lifesaving Society Bc & Yukon Branch

the lifesaving society (formerly the royal lifesaving society) is a not-for-profit organization whose mandate is to reduce water-related death and injury. the society has been educating the public and training lifesavers and lifeguards in b.c. since 1911. national drowning prevention day in july and the annual commonwealth awards ceremony for honour & rescue in march are the most important events on the society's calendar: both recognize roles that any member of the public may find themselves in; that of either victim or rescuer. rarely does a drowning occur at a swimming facility with designated professional lifeguards on duty. however, many rescuers are proven to have drawn upon previous society lifesaving training, such as the bronze medallion or bronze cross, when undertaking acts of lifesaving. promoting lifesaving and lifeguarding programs, and improving aquatic safety through youth education are just two ways the lifesaving society is able to serve the public. the junior lifeguard club creates a focus for children aged seven years and up, preparing swimmers with valuable lifesaving skills. the canadian swim patrol and bronze star are programs specifically designed for young swimmers. the lifesaving society b.c. & yukon branch receives no federal or provincial government funding, relying on course revenues, donations and media awareness to continue this invaluable work. the honour & rescue ceremony is the largest event of its kind in canada and provides a fitting tribute to the work of volunteers, professionals and members of the public alike.
