With everyone staying home, it’s now more important than ever for everyone to be fire-safe. People can find information on our website - fireandemergency.nz...

We’re heading into winter, and with households self-isolating together, there’ll be more cooking at home, and more use of open fires, heaters, and dryers - all things which can increase fire risk.

New Zealanders can be confident that Fire and Emergency is well-prepared and ready to respond to emergencies as usual during the nationwide self- isolation period.

Please call 111 if you have a fire, we will ask you whether anyone at the address is self-isolating or has a confirmed case of COVID-19. Where this is the case, we already have necessary measures in place to ensure everyone’s safety including protective clothing, gloves, masks, safety glasses and mask.

Hi neighbours. Remember police Sergeant Guy Baldwin, who rose to fame in 2009 for his expression "always blow on the pie"?
Well he's back, this time with a message for Kiwis: Stay home and help break the chain of coronavirus.
"This thing (coronavirus) is an invisible dragon. Please, stay home. Let's break the chain and save lives. If we follow the rules, we'll end this lockdown sooner. Let's slay this dragon, and get back to doing the things we love, like eating pies."

With self isolation and working from home being the new normal for the foreseeable future, figuring out how to stay physically and mentally fit is a huge priority.
Dance is ideal exercise because it’s a total-body workout - so that's why "Dance Yourself Happy Lockdown 2020" is being broadcast into your homes on EastFM 88.1 & 107.1 and www.eastfm.nz... for the next four weeks, between 7 - 8pm on Thursday's.
You'll groove to a concoction of EDM, chart-toppers, floor-bangers, house, synth-pop, techno, Euro-disco, dance-pop, mash-ups, some rock, sophistic-pop, and a touch of Latin.
Listen at home and dance to stay fit.
