VRA Rescue NSW Are Recruiting For Volunteers

July 17, 2025 by Roxane Manley

If you’ve ever thought about giving back to your community, learning real rescue skills, and being part of an awesome
team — now’s your chance.

The VRA Rescue NSW is currently recruit­ing across western NSW in an effort to re­cruit Volunteers for Squads in the western area as well as a State Rescue Group.

The State Rescue Group will consist of multi-skilled Volunteers from communities across NSW western area.

VRA Rescue NSW, formerly known as the NSW Volunteer Rescue Association, is a volunteer-based organization that pro­vides emergency rescue services across New South Wales, Australia. They are dedicated to community safety and play a vital role in emergency management and response. VRA Rescue NSW affiliates in­clude various rescue squads specializing in different areas like motor vehicle rescue, maritime search and rescue, and wilder­ness rescue.

VRA Rescue NSW is composed of vol­unteer members who dedicate their time and skills to assist the community in times of need. They offer a diverse range of res­cue services, including motor vehicle acci­dents, maritime incidents, wilderness and cave searches, and more.

Full training will be provided and no ex­perience is needed. People of ages 18+ are welcome.

VRA Rescue NSW covers Road Crash Rescue, Land Search, Flood Rescue, Ver­tical Rescue and much more. Whether you are keen to get hands on or want to help behind the scenes, there’s a role for you!

If you live in the western area and you are interested in finding out about becoming a volunteer then you can place an expression of inter­est by visiting the VRA website www.res­cue.org.au
