SELWYN TIMES Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi Tuesday September 26 2017 23 News Search on for Civil Defence volunteers Celebrating THE DISTRICT council is looking for volunteers to join its new Selwyn Civil Defence Response Team. The team will provide the district council with additional capability during an emergency. This includes helping with evacuations, sandbagging, light rescue, reconnaissance, cordon management and community needs assessment. A media spokesman said it is always looking for more volunteers to help respond to an emergency. “Selwyn already has about 30 community response teams and this is to supplement that,” he said. District council’s emergency management team leader Ryan O’Rourke said it is on the lookout for people with a background in rescue, but also for those who are enthusiastic about serving their community and who are willing to commit to the required training. “We need people who can operate in physically and mentally challenging environments within a small team. They must also have excellent communication skills and be able to follow instructions,” he said. The volunteers will be trained in emergency management, first aid, light rescue, operating fourwheel-drive vehicles, radio communications and flood response. Volunteers must have a full car driver licence and be able to commit to evening training weekly, and monthly weekend training activities. There are a number of other response teams already operating in Canterbury which have responded to major civil defence emergencies including the Christchurch earthquake, the Kaikoura/ Hurunui earthquake, the Port Hills fire and numerous flood events.
