Part of Sydney Northern Region, Ku-ring-gai SES Head Quarters is located at 1
Carlotta Ave Gordon 2072.
The State Emergency Service is a volunteer organisation that assists the
public in storms and floods. They also assist other agencies in incident
management, bush fires and search and recovery.
Members are trained in general rescue techniques, casualty retrieval and first
aid, chain saw operation, land and water search for people and evidence, storm
damage mitigation, navigation, flood boat operation, off road driving, traffic control and
communication.
Example of service:
In the event of damage to a house the SES will provide temporary repairs and
access. This would include removal of a tree from a roof and covering the
damage with a tarpaulin. The SES would not remove debris or make permanent
repairs as these are the professions of other people in the community with more
specialised skills and equipment and businesses to operate.
