SurfSpeak
SurfSpeak is the first offering of a new social enterprise that aims to help emergency services communicate with non-English speakers to keep people out of danger and hopefully save lives. SurfSpeak is specifically for life savers and lifeguards to communicate with non-English speaking beachgoers. The booklet allows the surf lifesaver to know which language the beachgoer requires, and then translates key phrases into 11 languages. It also has a 'missing person' section that allows the lifesaver to gather a name, gender, age, what the person is wearing, direction last seen, time last seen, and any major medical condition, quickly and effectively without knowing a single word the beachgoer is saying. SurfSpeak was developed in partnership with Surf Life Saving Queensland, and will be trialled over the summer at Surfers Paradise, Green Island, and Southbank in Brisbane.
