Southland fire fighting heroes...
Southland communities rely on volunteers to look after them and their properties when there is a fire or an accident. Those volunteers are willing to drop what they are doing and answer the call to help the people who depend on them, but they can only do that with the support of bosses and colleagues who allow them to leave during work hours and cover their roles.
Find out more about the businesses supporting local firefighters in our local community and let's give them a hearty thanks...

What's one highway or road that needs attention?
We've all been on a summer roadie and experienced first-hand the state of our roads.
If you've ever been stuck in a summer traffic jam, had near-misses on dangerous turns or feared for your life on clifftops (while the car behind you is tail-gating!) - you may have an opinion on this one.
Tell us what main road or highway you think needs some serious attention across the country, and why!
