## **EVAG Report 2023** 

Emergency Volunteer Action Group is a hybrid organisation of Rotary and Inner Wheel and other volunteers. We respond to callout by local authorities in Dorset, Somerset, and Wiltshire in the event of civil emergencies. We continue to attend both internal and external training courses to keep up with developments. We have our own small store which holds essential response equipment, and we also issue flood prevention gear free of charge, to households in danger of flash flooding. 

EVAG has been involved with the following significant happenings this year. 

## **October 22** 

Participated in exercise Round House held in Cary ford, Somerset. Involved manning an evacuation centre and shadowed local council staff training. 

## **May 23** 

Following Flash Flooding across Somerset. EVAG members were involved with the clean up of several houses occupied by elderly individual. 

**22/23 Throughout** the last year, EVAG have continued to supply, free of charge, flood equipment to potentially vulnerable families. 

We have moved all the stock out of the previous location because we could not afford their proposal for a much-increased rent. Currently, we are using a member’s secure barn but are actively seeking a new home for the £200,000 worth of stock **.** 

## **Finances** 

The financial summary is shown below. We have £7214 at end of 2022. Since then, we have used the £1000 from SSE to make some essential purchases . The parallel organisation of Somerset Volunteers (SCV) has continued to give both physical and financial support.
