Description
Port Augusta SES is a organisation run by dedicated volunteers. If you would like to join the team, contact us or come to the depot on Tuesdays from 7pm. Here at Port Augusta SES we rely on the hard work and dedication of our amazing volunteers. We are always looking for new people to join our team so if you would like to get involved, please feel free to contact us.
We have a range of operational and non operational roles available to suit people of all ages and levels of fitness, so don't be afraid to come and get involved!
Our volunteers are provided with all the training, equipment and resources needed to participate. All you need to bring is yourself and a committed attitude!
We also offer a Cadet program for youths aged between 13 and 18 years of age. This is a great program for young people to learn and develop some very valuable skills and knowledge.

The nights maybe cold however a little realism never hurts; Tonight Members of the Port Augusta SES Unit were introduced to Pumps and improvised barriers for water diversion and damming. Very valuable training before most of this crew participate in the next Storm/Flood course
