SES Woodend Unit Your local volunteer response for floods, storms and earthquakes - dial 132 500 for assistance 24/7.

Victoria State Emergency Service (SES) is the control agency for flood, storm, tsunami and earthquake in Victoria, managing responses to these emergencies and helping communities to prepare through planning and education. As well as operating the largest road rescue network in Australia, we also assist the Victoria Police in search and rescue operations and play an important support role during major bushfire responses.

🧡We would like to send a huge thank you to Macedon Nursery and Garden Supplies for their generous donation (and same day delivery) of 1.5 cubic metres of native soil mix.

There’s lots of changes happening around our unit and donations like this are very appreciated. If you’re doing work around the garden…support this awesome local business.🧡

🧡💙💙 Happy Father’s Day 💙💙🧡

We hope you all have a lovely day celebrating the father figures in your lives. We are also thinking of those whose father’s are not with us anymore.

At SES Woodend Unit, we have lots of special Dad’s who give up their time with their families to volunteer and assist the community in times of need and we are so thankful to have them 💙🧡

But you don’t have to miss out on family time…because they can join as well…like Tobin and his daughter Tahlia (Mum, Sue Ellen, is also a member so it’s a real family affair).

Tobin initially joined years ago at SES Gisborne Unit, remains a dual member and was recently recognised for his contribution to the community during the 2021 storm that brought hundreds of trees down across the Macedon Ranges.

Tahlia also joined a few years ago as a junior member at SES Gisborne unit, moving to SES Woodend Unit earlier this year.

🧡SES Woodend Unit would like to send a huge thanks to Frosts Timber & Building Supplies for their generous donation of wood for cribbing. 🧡 https://frosts.au/

What is cribbing you ask?

Cribbing is an emergency rescue technique used by the SES to safely stabilise and incrementally lift heavy, unstable objects—such as vehicles, machinery, or building debris—that may be trapping a person or blocking access.

🚨Our members have had a busy day today, initially attending a request for assistance with a very large tree blocking the road in Hesket and then attending the Emergency Services Expo at Kyneton, with over 1000 people through the gates. Thanks to Kyneton Fire Brigade (CFA) and Victoria Police Kyneton for hosting us.
It was great to talk to the community about how our SES volunteers help the community. 🚨
