On Monday 15th and Tuesday 16th May, 2023, more than 120 delegates from over 45 organisations met together to develop a collective water safety strategy for the South East Queensland region.
The forum, facilitated by Royal Life Saving Society - Australia and co-hosted by the Royal Life Saving Society - Queensland and the City of Gold Coast, came about as a result of Royal Life Saving research which found that 366 people had drowned in the region in the last 10 years, making the region a drowning blackspot region.
The drowning report and strategy are available below.
