Bondi Patrol Podcast
Welcome to The Bondi Patrol Podcast; a conversation with the people who volunteer their time to keep Bondi beach safe for swimmers, run the Bondi Surf Bathers' Life Saving Club as well as the Bondi community who embrace & support our club, and our values – I’m your host Glen Frost, I’m a Volunteer surf life saver at Bondi, and each episode I’ll be meeting with a local legend; either from our club, from the Australian surf life saving community, or from in and around Bondi.
We exist to save lives, create great Australians and build better communities, and we couldn’t do that without our 1500 volunteers and an engaged and supportive Bondi community, so thank you, we salute you.

Welcome to The Bondi Patrol Podcast; a conversation with the people who volunteer their time to keep Bondi beach safe for swimmers, and run the Bondi Surf Bathers' Life Saving Club - Our core Mission is to save lives, and we couldn’t do that without our 1500 volunteers and an engaged and supportive community, so thank you, we salute you.

In this episode, I am delighted to welcome Bondi Surf Life Saving Club Member and Captain of Lifesaving, Nixy Krite as our guest.
Nixy started her involvement with Bondi SLSC in October 2010 - she became a general member of a Surf Life Saving club, her kids started Nippers.
