On 25 July, communities across Australia united in recognition of World Drowning Prevention Day 2025, joining a global movement dedicated to saving lives. Landmarks across the country, including the iconic National Carillon in Canberra, lit up in blue as a powerful reminder of the need for drowning prevention. Local events, community activations, and the aquatic industry turning blue brought water safety to the front of everyone's minds. The day highlighted the urgent need for greater awareness and action, with hundreds of families tragically losing loved ones to drowning every year.
This year’s observance also coincided with the National Water Safety Summit 2025, where experts, leaders, and advocates gathered to drive national progress on drowning prevention.
Our teams across NSW, ACT, and TAS proudly joined the movement, turning their offices blue to show their support and commitment to reducing preventable deaths. World Drowning Prevention Day is a powerful reminder that drowning is a leading cause of accidental death worldwide, but it’s also preventable. Together, we can make a difference: anyone can drown, no one should.
