About this listen

Royal Life Saving Austalia recently released a report that had some pretty disturbuing statistcs, including the fact that most primary school kids can't swim 50m by the end of primary school. With drowning rates increasing 10 fold by the time kids are 20, it's never been more important to ask whether we're ok with the swimming skills of our kids?

This week to talk to the CEO Royal Life Saving Australia, Justin Scarr, about why it's so important to make some cultural changes.
