Join Portsmouth Voluntary Lifeguards
If you wish to become a member, or just find out a bit more about your local Beach Lifeguard Club, then please get in touch. You will need to be a reasonable swimmer if you wish to become a lifeguard or lifeboat crew, or you can help out in other ways, such as fundraising, vehicle driving and first aid.
We are currently undertaking a junior lifeguard scheme, where teenagers ages 13 and up are able to join the club to get their Assistant beach lifeguard qualification.
As a minimum standard for becoming a voluntary lifeguard, you are expected to be able to swim 200 meters in under 5 minutes. If you are unsure that you can do this, still get in contact with us. We have lots of contact with the Northsea Swimming Team based in Portsmouth, and many lifeguards are swim teachers, so we can give you lots of tips to ensure you meet the swim time.
If you wish to join, please fill in the form below and we will email you back as soon as possible!
