24.01.2022 LUCKY ESCAPE for a residents car that was almost struck by a fallen tree with this mornings wild wind. SES crews worked to clear a number of jobs in Tallangatta this morning, including a job where a tree had fallen from the neighboring property, barely missing a parked car. We also visited the Tallangatta Primary School where a branch had snapped and was left hanging over the fence and into the neighbors back yard. Our crew removed the fallen branch before cordoning off the a...rea until the tree can be properly inspected. A huge thanks to SES Wodonga Unit for coming out and lending a hand.

23.01.2022 Behind every brave and hard-working VICSES volunteer is a support network of people that help them achieve amazing things in their community. In 2020, our members’ friends and family have stood by our volunteers through a busy bushfire season, major storm systems, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Because of them, our volunteers can respond to emergencies 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Whether it’s picking up the kids from school, heating up dinner, or being there f...or a hug after a long day or night the support means everything to us. Thankyou! #sesfamiliesareeverything https://www.ses.vic.gov.au//campaig/your-family-our-family

20.01.2022 Welcome back to "tool of the week" where we highlight just some of the powerful tools our amazing volunteers use to get the job done. This week's tool of the week is Stabfast. The Stabfast is used mainly during a road accident where a car has landed on it's side or roof. Once setup, the tool makes the vehicle much safer for our crew to work in an around, and also helps to prevent any further injury to the casualty.

16.01.2022 It's been one heck of a year! So many great people doing amazing things for our community. Know someone that fits the bill? Show your appreciation by nominating them for the Towong Shire Council 2021 Australia Day awards.

04.01.2022 Welcome to our FINAL "tool of the week" where we've highlighted just some of the powerful tools our amazing volunteers use to get the job done. This final tool is one we use all the time. Fitted with a PTO driven 240v generator, extendable light mast, compressed air outlets, and of course, our equipment and crew, our Heavy Rescue truck "Tallangatta Rescue" is always up to the job. THANK YOU for tuning in to our "tool of the week". We hope you enjoyed seeing some of the equipment our AMAZING volunteers use to serve our community.

03.01.2022 It's not always Bells & Whistles, sometimes just a bucket and broom is what the doctor ordered!

02.01.2022 She's here! The new Tallangatta Rescue boat had its maiden voyage this afternoon. The boat needs to be 'run in' before it can be put through its paces, a task our boat crew were only too happy to do in today's weather.
