Last night members of the Dalkeith CFS attended a Shaka Project meeting hosted at the SA SES Gawler Unit. 🤙

The Shaka Project focuses on creating conversations around mental health, encouraging people to check in on one another, and reminding us that it’s okay to talk when things aren’t going well.

For emergency service personnel, nights like these are incredibly important. Whether it’s responding to fires, motor vehicle accidents, rescues, storms, or other incidents, we are regularly exposed to situations that can take a toll on us over time. While we train hard to look after our communities, it’s just as important that we look after ourselves and each other.

These meetings provide a valuable opportunity to connect, share experiences, learn from one another, and reinforce the message that no one has to carry their burdens alone.

One of the biggest takeaways from the evening was the importance of checking in on your mates. Sometimes a simple conversation can make all the difference.

Check on your mates.
Check on your crew.
Ask the question.
Listen to the answer.

Mental health is just as important as physical health, and looking after one another is part of being a strong team.

Thank you to The Shaka Project and the. Gawler State Emergency Service for facilitating such an important conversation.

🤙 One conversation can change a life.

Last night we had the honour of delivering a prevention workshop to the community at SES Gawler & CFS Dalkeith. This incredible group of volunteers tackle some pretty challenging days, all in service to the community they love. We truly are so grateful to be given the opportunity to have just an important conversation 💚

More conversation, less stigma. 🤙🏽

🔥🚪Forcible Entry Training - Nuriootpa CFS🚪🔥

A couple training nights ago, a crew from Dalkeith CFS travelled to Nuriootpa CFS to participate in specialised forcible entry training utilising their dedicated entry prop.

The session provided members with hands-on, dynamic scenarios in forcible entry, tool selection and application, scene considerations, and crew coordination learning control words such as Strike (Single Hit), Drive (Multiple Hits), and Stop (Cease activity) in a controlled training environment.

Training opportunities such as these are essential in maintaining operational capability and ensuring crews remain prepared for incidents requiring rapid access like Entry Assistance requests from SA Ambulance Service

We thank Nuriootpa CFS for hosting the session and for their ongoing support of inter-brigade training and capability development across the service.

We are proud to have Dalkeith CFS represented at Parliament House this week for the St Florian’s Day reception.

A great time recognising the hard work and commitment of emergency service volunteers across SA. Thanks to James Agness MP and Rhiannon Pearce MP for the invitation and ongoing support.

When our community faces tough times, this group of people is the first to run towards danger, to protect us.

Our firefighters and emergency service personnel deserve thanks every day, but I wanted to especially thank them with a reception at Parliament this week.

Thank you to Emergency Services Minister Rhiannon Pearce MP for joining me in thanking these hard working volunteers, as we marked St Florians Day - International Firefighters' Day.
