Ian Goodenough MP, Federal Member for Moore presented a Certificate of Commendation to Robbie Palmer, Mundaring SES, at the 2024 Moore Federal Volunteer Awards during Volunteer Week. The commendation recognises outstanding work with the SES.
Robbie has been a long serving volunteer with the SES at Mundaring where he commenced more than 20 years ago. He has served as a Section Leader, Training Manager, Deputy Unit Manager and Unit Manager.
In addition to the unit activities, he reached out and accepted the role of SES Volunteer Association Treasurer, a position that he has performed diligently for the past seven years.
Robbie is a dedicated volunteer and gentleman of the highest calibre and displays exceptional integrity in dealing with volunteers, particularly with the intense work required to manage people successfully.
When Robbie achieved at the local unit what was possible in management, he then continued as a workplace trainer within the unit.
Whilst it is very easy to speak highly of Robbie, what is most impressive are his achievements to overcome many challenges in his life, and yet he is always there to support and help others.
Congratulations Robbie!
