WHAT TO EXPECT AS A MEMBER
We can help connect you with others in your local area or by supplying you with the tools to build your own local community of mutual assistance group(s). This in turn connects you with wider area support.
Essential survival and civil defence training to help you achieve a better chance of survival compared to doing it alone or being completely unprepared.
Members share their knowledge with other members to assist each other in the event of a crisis. Local knowledge is key, but further to this will be the upcoming members forum.
There are some circumstances where you might have to survive alone. Membership means you will be better prepared and connected to survive with our member connect directory. If there are no members, we will equip you with the knowledge to promote mutual assistance in your area.
We recognise our own members achievements whilst also recognising external persons humanitarian achievements.
Be a part of a higher calling, do something great and get involved in helping those in need when a crisis strikes.
What our members say
I derive considerable professional and personal satisfaction from participating in this distinguished organisation, whose purpose aligns closely with principles of community resilience and collective preparedness.
Recent global and regional disruptions—including the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical instability affecting critical maritime routes such as the Strait of Hormuz, and a succession of severe natural disasters including floods, storms, and bushfire emergencies have collectively underscored a fundamental vulnerability in modern society: the fragility of interconnected supply chains and essential service networks. When these systems are compromised, the cascading effects are immediate and profound, communications infrastructure may fail, logistical support can be interrupted, and individuals and communities can rapidly become isolated from necessary resources and assistance.
Within this context, I am able to contribute meaningfully by supporting structured response capability through the provision of training, the dissemination of practical and operational knowledge, and the facilitation of preparedness initiatives at the local level. This includes assisting communities in developing cooperative mutual-aid frameworks often referred to as local resilience or support groups designed to enhance collective self-sufficiency during periods of disruption.
Furthermore, the organisation delivers leadership development and a civil defence oriented perspective, equipping individuals and groups with the cognitive frameworks and practical competencies required not only to respond effectively during crises, but also to stabilise and restore normal functioning in their aftermath.
At its core, this is a voluntary endeavour grounded in civic responsibility and shared commitment. It reflects an ethos of collective endurance and mutual support “surviving together” with the objective of preserving continuity, stability, and the valued qualities of our way of life, consistent with a distinctly Australian spirit of cooperation, adaptability and resilience.
Founder
After being approached to join, I immediately struck a rapport with the League’s values to aid and assist people in need of survival skills in extreme times of trouble.
I capitalised on the opportunity to become a valued contributor in the League, as Chaplain, where I can offer humanitarian assistance, mentoring services, coaching, and not to mention Christian guidance, insights and encouragement, when required, in alignment with the League’s noble cause, God forbid a crisis ever warrants it. Keep an eye out for my articles that I will post from time to time that aim to bless you.
