What the SES do

This might include tarping holes in roofs or propping up walls that are at risk of collapsing as well as removing trees that have falled across roads and houses.
Community Education: Connecting with the community - educating about when to call the SES, and how they can stay prepared for emergencies
Flood Rescue: Rescuing people from flood water, helping people evacuate and sandbagging around buildings if flooding is iminent
Search and rescue: SES are often called upon by the police when someone has gone missing to help search for them
Road Crash Rescue:Extracating patients that have become trapped inside their vehicle as a result of an road accident
Theatre: I also volunteer as a lighting technician with multiple local theatre groups to help put on productions
Joke of the weekTwo hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy takes out his phone and calls the emergency services.
He gasps: "My friend is dead! What can I do?" The operator says: "Calm down, I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead." There is a silence, then a gunshot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says: "OK, now what?"
