Noosa Surf Club to host World Inclusion Day breakfast

On Friday 10 October the Noosa Heads Surf Life Saving Club will be the venue for a special World Inclusion Day breakfast event, hosted by Cr Amelia Lorentson, and proudly presented by the Seahorse Inclusion Foundation, with support from Noosa Heads Supporters Club.

This year’s event will raise funds for a pilot surf education program bringing students from two remote Queensland schools—Cunnamulla and Morven—to Noosa for a five-day surf lifesaving experience. These students, primarily Indigenous youth, will gain vital water safety and lifesaving skills, building on the success of the Cherbourg one-day program.

The morning will feature inspiring speakers including Surf Life Saving Queensland CEO David Whimpey, speaking on SLSQ’s DEI strategy,

Jack Lewis, founder of the NHSLC Cherbourg Program founder Jack Lewis, YoungCare CEO Clare Stewart and representatives from Noosa Tigers AFC Inclusion Team, Noosa Pirates Rugby, Connect Rugby, and Flexi School students.

All proceeds will supportive pilot surf education program and other local inclusion programs and projects, helping to create access, opportunity, and connection for underrepresented groups in our region.

Registration opens at 6:45am, with the event running from 7-9am. Tickets are $50, which includes breakfast.
