Lifesavers with Pride had a somewhat limited Covid 2020-21 summer season. This included MG Parade Launch, Rainbow Beaches, photoshoot, rehearsals, outreach and Mardi Gras parade entry.
The 2021 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras parade was held on Saturday 6 March. LWP were represented with 38 marchers limited due to the Covid restrictions, keen to show lifesaving as progressive, inclusive and welcoming. This year there were many changes to the parade, including moving it from Oxford Street, into the Sydney Cricket Ground This our song was “Rise Up” by Andra Day, to match the parade theme of "Rise". Our props this year were our march past flags with beach names from all around the country used to attract attention from the centre of the SCG.
