You know what these pics need? YOU!!! Bonbeach You know what these pics need? YOU!!! Bonbeach LSC is a community organisation run by volunteers. Our volunteers run beach patrol, education & training including first aid, beach management, inflatable rescue boat (IRB) skills and more. Volunteers also run our junior, youth, senior, and masters activities including NIPPERS! Over the coming posts we will list the volunteer positions that are needed for our programs to run this summer and beyond. If the positions aren't filled by our community then the programs won't run - it's that simple 🥺 Talk to us - we NEED you now 🙏
Thanks @fimmaconstructions Thanks @fimmaconstructions
Getting close to completion now. Final fit out is Getting close to completion now. Final fit out is under way. Looking forward to patrolling and Nippers in our new club for the coming season. It is the volunteers at our club that make it what it is and we can’t run the programs we do without them... and we need more! If you would like to see Nippers running at Bonbeach this summer please get in touch - your Bonbeach Life Saving Club community needs you!
Courtesy of Life Saving Vic - Many of the young wo Courtesy of Life Saving Vic - Many of the young women in our all-Afghan lifesaving team never imagined they would learn to swim for many reasons, including appropriate swimwear. Participating in LSV’s surf rescue certificate program wearing baggy tops, leggings and their hijab added an extra layer of complexity to their goal of becoming qualified lifesavers. In 2019, the girls’ home club Bonbeach Life Saving Club Inc. reached out to Ahiida Burqini Burkini Swimwear who generously donated 12 specialised swimwear ‘burqinis’ so that the girls could swim comfortably and those last remaining barriers to participation were removed. Thanks to the swimwear made for patrolling and competing, the team, including 16 year-old Sahar Ehsani who came to Australia as a refugee from Pakistan in 2018, were able to become involved in lifesaving. “We learnt swimming for a year and then became lifesavers thanks to Life Saving Victoria’s diversity and inclusion programs,” said Sahar. “I think lifesaving provides a sense of usefulness and makes me feel I’m contributing to the growth of the community.” Thank you to Ahiida, who have gone on to donate over 50 burqinis to Bonbeach LSC for use in programs, patrols and competitions such as the Victorian States Carnival in March 2021. Life Saving Victoria’s Diversity and Inclusion program, which includes the surf rescue certificate participants, will also benefit from the use of club burqinis in the summer ahead.
