When storms occurwe are quickly on the scene making temporoary repairs to ensure buildings are secure until owners can make permanent repairs.

In the event of an earthquake it is possible that every emergency service is involved. SES is responsable fror controlling the total response.

4. Search and Rescue

We have highly trained volunteers often involved in assisting Victoria Police with search and rescue operations, on land, inland waters, verticle rescues, bush and snow searches.

5. Crime Scenes

We provide lighting for Victoria Police as well as searching for weapons or other evidence.

6. Support and Relief Roles

We support Victoria Police and other Emergency Services as required. The SES coordinate the activities of other relief agencies when needed, such as the Red Cross and Salvation Army.

7. Public Relations

Regular PR sessions are held either at the unit or at community events to educate the communtiy on what we do as well as recruiting drives.

It is a proud matter of public record that SES volunteers have saved the lives and property of countless Victorians.
