New campaign supported by Greenpeace urges Surf Life Saving WA to scrap $5m naming rights deal

“There is no way I’m letting my kids question me in 20 years’ time why I let them walk around at the age of five advertising a company that was knowingly destroying their future,” another mother says.

Greenpeace Australia Pacific senior campaigner Sophie McNeill said such sponsorships were a way for companies to buy a social licence and there was no way to “opt out”. “You couldn’t think of a more inappropriate sponsor. Kids are going to look back and say to their parents, ‘I can’t believe you let me do that’.

When they join, Nippers are given a hi-vis vest, skull cap, wide-brimmed hat and bag with the Woodside logo on it.
