Victoria State Emergency Service (VICSES) is a volunteer-based organisation that provides emergency assistance to the community 24 hours a day, seven days a week. VICSES is the control agency during emergency responses to flood, storm, landslide, tsunami and earthquake and is the largest provider of road crash rescue in Victoria. VICSES volunteers also provide assistance to other emergency services such as Victoria Police, Ambulance Victoria, Country Fire Authority (CFA) and to Loddon Shire Council.
The demand on VICSES volunteers during severe weather is huge. A large volume of calls mean that jobs need to be prioritised.
VICSES is an emergency services agency and may undertake emergency temporary repairs if required. For minor leaks, superficial damage, removal of debris and cutting down of trees that are still standing, please contact a professional tradesperson.
If you are seeking emergency help in a flood or storm because:
Call VICSES on 132 500. Your request for assistance will be logged by our 24/7 call centre. A local volunteer may then contact you for further details.
If anyone’s life is in danger, always call Triple Zero (000).
