A big shout out to the team from the #RUOK2024 Conversation Convoy for partnering with our @vicsesnews Health and Well-being team today to remind us that a simple conversation can make such a difference, not just on R U OK day, but any day. #TogetherWeAreVICSES
A great privilege to be part of the opening of @vicsesnews Mildura Unit’s significant expansion & partial refurb of existing areas of their LHQ with our partner agencies this afternoon. Celebrations made even more special with the wives of two founding members participating.
A real pleasure and privilege to be part of yesterday’s Loddon and Mallee Unit Area Group Awards ceremony at Inglewood.
Delighted to recognise over 225 years of dedicated and diligent service, from 5+ years to 40+ years, to Victoria State Emergency Service and communities
