Never too young to learn never to old to start

The Grey Medallion Courses are specially designed to cater for those who are over 55, and are proving to be a success.

The Royal Life Saving Society Grey Medallion is a water safety and lifesaving skills program for older people, aiming to reduce drowning rates and encourage healthy, independent and active lifestyles.

The program endeavours to teach participants a range of personal survival techniques, provide them with skills to deal with an emergency situation and develop confidence and competence to enjoy aquatic exercise and other water-based activities safely.

The four main components of the program are:

  • Water Safety Knowledge
  • Resuscitation and Emergency Care
  • Aquatic Exercise
  • Personal Survival and Lifesaving Skills

For more information about the Grey Medallion and how you can get involved, please contact Royal Life Saving Society WA on (08) 9393 8200.
