🎉 Congratulations to Our 2026 NSW SES Youth Interns! 🎉
A huge congratulations to the 14 young people who have successfully completed the NSW SES Youth Internship Program during Term 3, 2026 at Lismore City Unit.
Over the course of the program, these interns have demonstrated commitment, enthusiasm, and a genuine desire to learn more about emergency services, volunteering leadership, teamwork and developing their practical skills.
Through hands-on activities, training sessions, and engagement with volunteers and other emergency service agencies, they have gained valuable insights into how NSW SES supports communities before, during, and after emergencies.
Throughout the internship, participants developed their understanding of:
✅ Emergency management and incident response
✅ Teamwork, leadership, and communication skills
✅ Community preparedness
✅ The diverse volunteer roles that help keep communities safe
✅ The importance of service, collaboration, and helping others
The knowledge, skills, and experiences gained through this program will not only support their own personal and professional development but will also contribute to building stronger, more capable communities into the future.
Programs like this demonstrate the important role young people play in shaping the future of emergency. We are proud to see these talented young people stepping up, learning new skills, and making a positive difference.
A special thank you to the many volunteers and partner agencies who dedicated their time to coordinate, train, mentor, and facilitate the program. Your passion, knowledge, and commitment created meaningful learning experiences and helped inspire the next generation of community leaders and volunteers.
Well done to all 14 interns on this fantastic achievement. We look forward to seeing where your journey takes you next!
