The Royal Life Saving Society UK (RLSS UK) is the National Governing Body for pool-based Lifesaving Sport - a sport recognised by the International Olympic Committee and the Commonwealth Games Federation. Lifesaving Sport is the only sport whose skills are first learned for humanitarian purposes.
As showcased in our new promotional video, Lifesaving Sport is a competitive and dynamic international sport, with a variety of fun and challenging activities that take place in and out of the water at swimming pools and the beach. It is also an important vehicle to engage young people in lifesaving and support drowning prevention.

The RLSS Commonwealth Lifesaving Championships are held every two years, aiming to encourage participation in Lifesaving Sport and further development of lifesaving practices, as well as bringing the lifesaving family together.
After a fantastic 2023 event hosted by Lifesaving Society Canada (read about our home nations performances), RLSS UK is delighted to have been chosen to pick up the baton for Commonwealths 2025!
Thank you to RLSS Commonwealth Drowning Prevention for selecting RLSS UK to deliver the Championships.
