WICEN South Australia has been activated in the past week to support SAVEM, the South Australian Veterinary Emergency Management, providing (non-amateur) hand-held radios to them and the Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources fire appliance travelling with their convoy; and setting up an aluminium mast at their base location.

WICEN will have a stand at the Central Coast Amateur Radio Club's Wyong Field Day on 22 February 2015.

WICEN has a twitter account: @wicennsw

Facebook users will find the official WICEN New South Wales page, an informal national WICEN group, and at least one interstate group.
