Our History

In 1967, Lord Louis Mountbatten, Grand President of The Royal Life Saving Society met several enthusiastic lifesavers and suggested the formation of a Singapore Branch in view of the growing interest in lifesaving and the excellent work carried out in Singapore. Lord Mountbatten sought clearance from the then Prime Minister of Singapore, Mr Lee Kuan Yew and this was granted. The Singapore Branch of the Royal Life Saving Society was thus formed on 16 August 1967 with Mr Rowland Lyne as the President, Mr Milton Tan as the Vice-President and Mr Lee Hon Ming as Honorary Secretary.

 

Mr Rowland Lyne retired in 1968, Mr Milton Tan, who was also President of the National Safety Council of Singapore, took over as the President of the Singapore Branch. In 1981, The Royal Life Saving Society approves the formation of Singapore Life Saving Sociey, a society registered under the Societies Act of Singapore.
