The Lifesaving Society is a national volunteer organization and registered charity, composed of tens of thousands of individual members and over 2,000 affiliated aquatic facilities, municipalities, waterfronts and schools. Established in England in 1891 as The Swimmers'​ Life Saving Society, we became the Royal Life Saving Society in 1904. Today, we are known to Canadians simply as the Lifesaving Society.

MISSION STATEMENT: To prevent Drowning and Water-Related Incidents for all Canadians: by providing lifesaving, lifeguarding and leadership education and by providing public education

Making Canadians Water Smart®
The Lifesaving Society works with a number of partners to collect information on unintentional water-related deaths in Canada. Each year, we publish The National Drowning Report and provincial drowning reports with our findings. Our annual drowning research focuses our Water Smart® public education efforts on those people most at risk - like men fishing in small boats - or those who can make a significant difference, such as parents of young children.

Vision
The Lifesaving Society serves all Canadians by providing information and skills that promote safety in, on and around water. The Lifesaving Society is the Canadian authority in aquatic lifesaving education and in lifeguarding. The Society is a leader, and a partner, in the delivery of water safety education.
