🌊 Ready to respond, beyond the red and yellow flags. Last weekend’s Surf Life Saving NSW Emergency Call Out Team (ECOT) Forum was an opportunity to connect, share knowledge and strengthen emergency response readiness across our lifesaving community. At Bilgola SLSC, our ECOT is a team of volunteer lifesavers who can be called upon to respond to coastal emergencies, including outside normal patrol hours. Activated through Surf Life Saving’s emergency response system, club teams provide a vital local response when help is needed, working alongside NSW Police, NSW Ambulance, Marine Rescue and fellow lifesavers. Shout out to our Billy ECOT: Lucy Brogden, Dave Burton, Pete Fenley, Emanuel Freer, Andrew Gough, Candice Heys, Ollie Heys, Dave Madew, Romilly Madew, Gavin Mortlock, Bridie O’Sullivan, Craig Poppleton, Darren Umbers, Greg Woods & Grant Worner. Thank you to SLSNSW for bringing these teams together, and to our Bilgola volunteers for the time, training and commitment they give to keeping our community safe. ❤️💛 #BilgolaSLSC #SLSNSW #EmergencyCallOutTeam #VolunteerLifesavers #CoastalSafety #MySurfLife
