22Have you ever thought you wanted to be a part of the rewarding work of the Emergency Services?

​Well here is your chance! The Youth in Emergency Services Programme is rolling out once again for 2022! We are looking for 16-24yr olds with a passion to work alongside some of Marlborough's greatest hero's.

We can only take the first 20 young people though so you need to register now! We will also host the info night for this programme at the Civil Defence Headquarters. Contact us for more info.

Watch some of extra training some of the participants got to be a part of this year to help educate other young people on how to be ready safe in that case of a civil emergency :)

The Youth in Emergency Services (YES) programme was initiative funded by the Ministry of Youth Development, designed to strengthen the connection between young people and their communities by way of hands-on engagement with the work of volunteer emergency services in their area.

Marlborough run  the  YES programme in 2016. 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021 for 20 young people aged 16-20 from Picton, Blenheim, Renwick, Rai Valley and the Pelorus Sounds showed awesome commitment and active participation over a nine week programme that included Rarangi Surf Lifesaving, NZ Fire, National Rural Fire Authority, Civil Defence, NZ Police, St John Ambulance, Coastguard, and Land Search and Rescue.

The programme finishes with an overnight expedition to Mistletoe Bay Eco Village in the Marlborough Sounds, where our young people were challenged to use their new found knowledge, skills and experience over a range of scenarios designed to build on what they had learned over the previous weeks.

At the conclusion of the programme the participants are encouraged to volunteer with one of the emergency services, to further their learning and community participation...and work towards work towards the Ministry's ultimate outcome: 'more young people contributing positively to their communities'.

Feedback from the course was overwhelmingly positive: 'well-organised, informative, thorough, good outlook for future opportunities/job possibilities'; 'LOVED THE CHOPPER'; 'really fun theory'; 'awesome getting to know each other; 'such an eye-opener to know what is going on behind the scenes'; 'so grateful to all the organisations that took part, all of us know and appreciate the effort and time that has gone into making this happen for us'....

Check out all the action in the pics below!!

In the meantime, if a career in the emergency services is something you are considering, and you would like the chance to volunteer and see if it really is for you, contact us at MYT and we can put you in touch with the right people....we love to help! Contact Ruby on events@myt.org.nz
