19.01.2022 LOOK UP, AROUND & AHEAD Due to strong gusts and damaging winds overnight, please be aware that trees, branches and other debris may have fallen across lo...cal roads - drive slowly and ensure you're fully-focused on what’s ahead.

18.01.2022 Yesterday, Swan Hill SES were paged to an unusual rescue. A mother duck and her ducklings had gotten stuck at the bottom of a pool, and although mum could fly out, the ducklings could not. All were safely removed and taken to the nearby lake (mum was watching from a distance). Great job team!! ... It has also come to that time of year again where we will be selling tickets for our annual duck race (Yes! We will still be doing the duck race this year-although with yellow ducks, not these ones ). Keep and eye on our facebook page on how you can get your hands on a ticket!

13.01.2022 Due to the nature of COVID-19, in recent times we’d taken a break from face-to-face skills maintenance and training to focus only on responding to emergencies. ...From this week, you might see us back out undertaking training in small groups to ensure we have the essential skills and capability required to respond to an emergency. Emergency services as a permitted industry are able to conduct critical training and exercising under the directions, as endorsed by the Victorian Chief Health Officer. Our crews are following all the COVIDSafe principles, wearing masks and working hard to ensure we are there for our community. Thank you

04.01.2022 A lucky Labrador named Coco was rescued by the SES Swan Hill Unit this week! Coco’s human owns an award-winning rose farm, and is organising a special donatio...n to VICSES to say thanks. (Orange petals are definitely our favourite) #HappyFriday #Orange

02.01.2022 Happy Father's day to all the awesome Dad's out there today! Have you got a dad joke? Comment below your best one!

01.01.2022 Know what to do if your home is being threatened by major flooding: Bag it - by laying sandbags where water may get into your home. Block it - by covering your toilet and drains to prevent back-flow.... Lift it and Leave - by shifting valuables onto tables and benchtops, and leaving early to a family or friends house on higher ground (which is still ok to do in-line with COVID-19 restrictions).
