Early this week operators From Taree Rescue Squad headed north to boost operational numbers in the region.

This morning whilst returning to Taree from Casino, operators were tasked to a land search in Talarm, Nambucca Valley.

Under the direction of NSW Police Rescue, operators conducted an extensive land search through steep, dense and challenging terrain for a person last seen on a local property. VRA Rescue operators worked alongside several NSW RFS RAFT crew throughout the operation. Unfortunately, at the conclusion of today’s tasking, the missing person had not been located with search efforts set to continue tomorrow.

Operators from Taree Rescue Squad remain prepared to assist across the state and deploy resources when required to help achieve the best possible outcomes for the community. In recent months, this has included an increase in operations beyond our usual response area.
