This bus is generously provided by Noosa Council to replace our previous near 40 year old Coaster Bus. The Noosa Unit is greatly appreciative of this invaluable asset which will assist transporting our SES members to emergency activations and incidents as required within the Noosa Shire Community in times of need.

10.01.2022 The Noosa SES members remain on standby to assist when called upon, however there are some things you can do to help yourself in the lead up to more severe weather: Keep your gardens and trees maintained. Keep your gutters clear. Ensure clear drainage around your house.... Listen to instructions and warnings. Keep an emergency kit. And only call 132 500 if it's an emergency or you cannot assist yourself. For more information visit our website. https://bit.ly/2vnMQ9f

07.01.2022 Safety at heights training was held last weekend at the Cooroy SES depot, in readiness for storm season. It was great to see new members from several areas working well together! A huge thank you to our instructors Dean, Col and Ken!

06.01.2022 The Noosa Info Convey had a great day at the Pomona Markets on Saturday. We interacted with well over 90 people, had 83 people take part in the Disaster preparedness competition and at the end of the day had a winner. Unfortunately we could only have one winner, which was tough as there were so many great entries. But well done Udo Hoever of Cooran. Your prize is on the way. Even the Willys had an outing and everyone enjoyed the strawberries

06.01.2022 A big thanks to the members of the Noosa SES unit for all their work over the past week supporting our brothers and sisters in the Rural Fire, Fire and Rescue and Police. There were some good times and many stories. Not only did we do road closures, but we went into the exclusion zone to pick up a companion dog, assist council workers to feed chickens, horses, cats, cattle and alpaca to name a few. Members also provided information and assistance at the Recovery Hub and ...the information stand at Bunnings. A BIG shout out also to the Noosa Outlook IGA for their support and supply of 2 pallets of water for the emergency services workers. Well done!. Everyone was very well looked after by the RRT - Rapid Relief Team. Great meals! Hopefully we can say good by to fires for a while. But be vigilant, take care not to do anything that can start a fire and most of all Be Ready - disasters can strike at any time....

05.01.2022 Tonight before training commenced the Local Controller appointed two new Deputy Controllers to the Unit Management Team, these two new deputies come with years of experience both within SES and external to SES. Both have displayed exceptional levels of professionalism and dedication to the unit, the two new deputies will assist the Local Controller in day-to-day operations and management of the unit. Join us in congratulating them.
