NSW SES Grafton City Unit Volunteers assisting their communities during floods, storms and tsunamis

Why do NSW SES volunteers keep showing up?

It's not just the training. It's not just the skills. It's not even the orange uniform.

It's the people, the friendships, the sense of purpose, and knowing you're helping your community when it needs you most.

Listen to what our volunteers have to say and discover what being part of the NSW SES is really about.

🧡ORDINARY PEOPLE DOING EXTRAORDINARY THINGS
Flood Rescue volunteers play a critical role in helping communities stay safe during floods and severe weather events. From assisting people trapped by rising water to supporting emergency response operations, Flood Rescue teams provide a specialist capability that can make a real difference when communities need it most.
To continue responding to future emergencies, we're looking for more people to join our Flood Rescue teams.
You don't need previous emergency services experience. We provide cost free training and support to help you develop valuable skills in flood rescue, boating, teamwork and emergency response.
Whether you're looking for a new challenge, practical skills, lifelong friendships, or a meaningful way to give back, there's a place for you in at the NSW SES.
🚤 Gain specialist rescue and boating skills.
🤝 Join a supportive and capable team.
💙 Help protect your community when it matters most.
