Fire Safety Presentation
Have a question about fire safety?
Next Saturday (12 June), the team at Fire and Emergency will be holding a fire safety session in Johnsonville.
The session will offer advice about how to reduce potential fire risks around your home.
Fire Risk Management Officer Phil Soal says cooking and using heaters pose significant fire risks.
“Hopefully those who attend will leave the session having learnt about kitchen fire safety, the dangers around heaters and how to reduce the risks when using multi-boards.”
He says an important message Fire and Emergency wants the public to know is that a house fire can be un-survivable within three minutes.
The free session will conclude with a kitchen fire demonstration, where Fire and Emergency will demonstrate what and what not to do in the event of a kitchen fire. The Johnsonville Volunteer Fire Brigade will also be in attendance to answer questions and show children over the fire truck.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
