Red Beach is sending one of our own to the world stage!
Dylan Blanchard (18) has been selected as a Junior Black Fin to represent New Zealand at the 2026 Lifesaving World Championships in Gqeberha, South Africa, from 25 November to 13 December.
To get there, Dylan needs to raise a further $10,000. We're looking for 10 local businesses to sponsor $1,000 each. Every dollar helps get Dylan to the start line, and he'll say thank you to each sponsor with a short video shout-out from the Worlds.
If your business can help, send us a message or call Dylan on 027 281 4475. Please share with anyone who might be keen to support.
To sponsor, pay direct to Dylan: 06-0383-0188118-02 (D Blanchard), using your business name as the reference.
