The
VRA (Volunteer Rescue Association) was formed in 1969
with the support of Police, Fire, Ambulance and Civil
Defence organisations to provide dedicated rescue
units in country areas on New South Wales and is the
only volunteer service accredited by the State Rescue
Board of New South Wales for all forms of search and
rescue.
The VRA is the second largest supplier of accredited
primary rescue units in New South Wales and provides
general land, motor vehicle, industrial, rural, vertical
(high angle ), maritime (inshore and offshore), inland
water (rivers, dams, etc), caves, underwater (search
and recovery), wilderness, aerial observation, alpine
Search and Rescue and communications.
Search and Rescue is the official publication of the
New South Wales Volunteer Rescue Association. Search
and Rescue is solely aimed as a communication tool
to bring the Association and its members together.
The publication will be distributed all throughout
New South Wales.
The publication is sent out on a quarterly basis.
This will mean the men and women of the Volunteer
Rescue Association can be kept up to date and well
informed throughout the year.
All
information in the publication is supplied by the
New South Wales Volunteer Rescue Association Inc.
(VRA). Letters to the editor will be forwarded to
the Administration Manager of the NSW VRA, for inclusion
at their discretion. |
