This event has now ended. Best fishes!

 

As we all come to terms with the magnitude of the current bushfire disaster across NSW, South Australia and Victoria and the extensive loss of lives, homes, wildlife and habitat which have left us feeling a sense of despair, many people are asking themselves - what can I do to help? 

Here at SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium we share that sense of grief and desire to help those in need so we have teamed up with local businesses, F45 Zetland and Alexandria, to hold a unique fundraising event. "ReeF45" is a morning workout session to raise funds for the WILD LIFE Conservation Fund.

We are calling Sydney-siders to Do Good and Feel Good on Sunday 19th January at 8am to join us for special 45 minute F45 workout with all proceeds of tickets sold supporting WILD LIFE Conservation Fund Initiatives. Working within the Zoo and Aquarium industry our hearts go out to the helpless creatures who are now without water, food and shelter as well as the incredible teams of vets, specialists and volunteers that have dedicated their time to rescue and rehabilitate Australian wildlife.
