Queensland SES
The Queensland State Emergency Service is vital to the continued safety of the community — which is why we’re so proud to support them.
Suncorp has been protecting what matters for more than 100 years. In 2020, we took our commitment to Queensland one step further, and signed on as Queensland SES’s Principal Community Partner. Suncorp is supporting the roll-out of the SES’s community engagement and education campaigns, funding vital equipment for SES volunteers and promoting volunteerism across the state.
Together, we’ll help Queenslanders connect with their neighbours and other vital support services, and bring communities together to enable better preparation, response and recovery.
