State Emergency Services (SES) volunteers are the first responders to emergencies. They provide assistance to many emergency situations including flood, storm, bush search and rescue and give relief to those impacted. Each year, SES volunteers donate over two million hours of their time to help others in need and make a huge difference in their communities.
SES volunteers are trained to assist in a wide range of emergencies, and they can provide invaluable support during times of crisis. If you’re ever caught in an emergency situation, don’t hesitate to call on the SES in your State or Territory.
Every year, there are thousands of SES volunteers who play a vital role in helping communities prepare for, respond to and recover from emergencies. They give up their time to help others in need and dedicate their efforts to those most vulnerable in their communities. SES is volunteer based organisation that provides emergency assistance 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. With over 44,000 volunteers spread throughout the country, the organisation is made possible by a diverse group of people that share the same desire to help, carry many different skill sets and come from all kinds of backgrounds.
