Swim and Survive Review recommends ways to improve programmes

The review’s main aim was to look at how a more unified approach can be taken to teaching swim and survival skills, as well as make recommendations on:

1. the specific roles and responsibilities of organisations involved in the delivery of swim and survival skills
2. funding processes and approaches
3. steps for implementing changes in the water safety sector.

The Drowning Prevention Council, ACC and Sport New Zealand will work with the sector in responding to the Review.
