Lawrie Lawrence thanks Commercial Radio

He is the passionate face and voice of the Kids Alive campaign, Lawrie Lawrence

Kids Alive educates Australians on the five steps of swim safety, fence the pool, shut the gate, learn to swim, supervise and learn to resuscitate.

Lawrie has thanked the commercial radio industry for its support in his Kids Alive campaign to stop kids from drowning in backyard pools.

He has shared with Commercial Radio Australia:  "Since the involvement of many partner radio stations drowning stats have dropped from 63 when we started the campaign to just 20 last year.  This statistic though improving is still unacceptable. We are chasing zero.."

A heap of Metro and Regional stations and networks have supported the Kids Alive campaign since 2002.
