Cindy McLEISH (Eildon) (09:50): Today is Wear Orange Wednesday, which has been established to acknowledge and thank SES unit volunteers. I have six SES units in my area, and they are highly valued by me and the community. They conduct a range of very diverse tasks, often in very trying conditions. Recent activity includes Mansfield SES being called out to a boat rescue on Lake Eildon and saving eight people after a capsize. Alexandra SES played a huge role in helping the community during the 2022 floods, with 11 rescues, including seven water rescues. Marysville SES recently assisted police searching for a missing hiker in the Cathedral Range, tackling steep terrain and thick vegetation. The Upper Yarra SES volunteers received a staggering 219 requests for assistance during the floods, and the Healesville SES unit attended landslips, cleared fallen trees and provided sandbags. Kinglake SES recently helped police search for a missing person. Thank you very much to our incredible SES volunteers.
