Your lifeline when you need it most
The essential purpose of RACQ CQ Rescue is to reduce loss of life, to reduce the likelihood of permanent neurological or physical impairment as an outcome of acute illness or severe trauma, and to reduce the number of days which emergency patients need to spend in hospital.

Rotary Club of Airlie Beach supporting RACQ CQ Rescue
A year ago in November 2010, the Rotary Club of Airlie Beach became the first Rotary Club to support RACQ CQ Rescue at major sponsorship level providing funds to have their logo added to the rescue helicopter. Rescue 100 Club events are held each quarter for members who pay $1,000 per annum in support of RACQ CQ Rescue. These events give members the opportunity to meet with other supporters and network their business at these sponsored functions. For more information about joining the Rescue 100 Club, contact RACQ CQ Rescue on 4998 5232 or email office@cqrescue.com.au. |
