Surf Life Saving and Westpac - A New Generation Partnership



As major sponsor of the Year of the Surf Lifesaver during 2007, Westpac will be involved in a series of events which will commemorate the rich history of surf lifesaving in Australia.

Westpac has also become the major sponsor of  the Junior State Surf Life Saving Championships in each state and the Northern Territory, contributing to the development of the skills of the next generation of surf lifesavers.

And as principal national partner for the Westpac Surf Lifesaving Public Fundraising Appeal, Westpac will ensure that SLSA can go on saving lives well into the next generation.

The relationship between Westpac Banking Corporation and Surf Life Saving in Australia is the most durable in the organisation's history.  

It began in Sydney in 1973, with the sponsorship of the country's first rescue helicopter service, by the then Bank of NSW. 

Since then, it has grown to include support of Life Saver Rescue helicopter services including the Westpac Lifesaver Rescue Helicopter in South Australia. Click here to go to the Westpac Lifesaver Rescue Helicopter Page.

The most recent evolution of this relationship will see Westpac at the heart of an organisation which has saved more than 500,000 lives since 1907.

Westpac's valued relationship with Surf Life Saving is a part of their ongoing commitment to ensure that every generation lives better than the last.
