We are Dawlish Warren Life Saving Club; a small but longstanding Surf Lifesaving club affiliated to Surf Life Saving Great Britain (SLSGB) based on Dawlish Warren beach in South Devon. We're still going strong 60 years on, with members as young as 8 and as old as 80.
Whether you're after a new hobby, want to build your sea safety knowledge, develop your first aid skills, or take your first steps towards becoming a beach lifeguard, there's a place for you here.
“Being part of a surf lifesaving club brings together everything I enjoy; water sessions, a focus on safety & inclusion and working towards my lifeguard course. But what makes it really special are the friends I’ve made and the fun we have whilst learning skills that really matter”

Lifeguard since 2025
DWLSC is a registered charity in England and Wales; all our work is carried out by volunteers; our coaches, trainers, assessors and lifeguards give up their own free time to patrol the beach, provide water safety cover at events and teach younger generations vital surf lifesaving skills.
All equipment used by DWLSC is purchased thanks to donations and sponsorship from people like you. Please consider donating any amount, it all helps us continue our work.
