NBN News reported on the progress of our new HQ on Tuesday night, it’s all looking great and we can’t wait to move in and utilise all that space! As you can see from the NBN News video it is certainly a change from what we have been working out of in Booral. It will be great to have all our SES Rescue and Storm vehicles, trailers and floodboat in the one location and not in members garages.

On Monday night, 29th June 2026 members of Stroud SES gathered at the RFS shed in Stroud to celebrate WOW Day.
WOW Day (Wear Orange Wednesday) is celebrated each year in May to thank the incredible volunteers of the SES during National Volunteer Week.
As a small token of their appreciation, the NSW SES wanted to treat all members to a games night. We took a vote an decided to have a Trivia Night amongst our members. Unfortunately due to training, family and illness amongst some members we were unable to hold our event until Monday 29th.

What a great time we all had, so much fun! Our theme obviously was the colour Orange and most members dressed up. As you can see from the photos the winner was Clare who went to a lot of trouble to dress as “The Lorax”.
The overall winners of the Trivia rounds were Carolyn and James, well done to you both.
Thanks to Ange at Billy T for the yummy food to kick the night along.

If you would like to join our wonderful unit at Stroud we are always on the lookout for new members. Don’t want to climb a roof? You don’t have to! Don’t want to do Road Crash Rescue? You don’t have to! There are lots of different things lots of different people can do. Not sure if SES is for you, give Steve a call on 0427 254 897 or Sandy on 0418 212 869 and we can have a chat.

Members of your Stroud SES Unit were given the opportunity to inspect the new Unit building in preparation for its handover in coming months.

All members were impressed by the detail that has gone into the construction and layout. It will facilitate delivery of Rescue and other services from a base that provides a comprehensive list of features to support rapid operations response and training.

Safety, functionality, advanced technology, security and accessibility have been key factors incorporated into the modern and fit for purpose building with modifications from standard designs to suit the location.

We look forward to ‘moving in’ and supporting our communities through delivery of our services.

Stay tuned for our next update which will be once we occupy the building and fit it out to our needs.
