Poll: Do you know anyone affected by the Kinleith job cuts and reviews?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

“It’s hard to describe how I feel, numbness mostly, it’s all still an unknown,” says Kirby Chitty, a qualified boiler and turbine operator at Kinleith Mill.

Between them, Chitty and her fiancé have spent 30 years at the mill but what happens in the next four months will determine their futures in the South Waikato.
