📱 Heads up South Australia!

At 1:30 pm ACST (SA local time) on Monday 27 July, compatible mobile devices across South Australia may receive the AusAlert national test notification.

The test alert will make compatible devices vibrate and play a loud siren-like sound, even if your device is on silent or do not disturb. It will clearly identify itself as a TEST and no action is required.

AusAlert is a new national emergency messaging system being developed by the Commonwealth Government to help deliver critical warning information during emergencies.

For more information, visit www.AusAlert.gov.au

Today is Thank a First Responder Day.

A national initiative led by Fortem Australia that encourages Australians to express their gratitude to

June 10th is the day to recognise the people who attend emergencies, respond to disasters, provide medical assistance, and help keep us safe every day. The day also acknowledges the families who support fire and emergency service workers and volunteers who protect and support communities across the country.st responders behind the scenes, often making significant sacrifices of their own.

Across Australia, first responders attend countless incidents that most of us hope we never have to encounter. These situations are often unpredictable, physically demanding, and emotionally challenging, however first responders perform their duties with professionalism and commitment. Their contribution is woven into the safety and resilience of every community.

Thank a First Responder Day reminds us that behind every emergency response vehicle is a person who has chosen a profession or volunteer role dedicated to helping others during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.

Today we take the time to show our appreciation for our dedicated Region 2 Ops Brigade volunteers and their supportive families, Thank you.
