Emergency Information & Planning Meeting - 22nd November
WHEN: Wednesday, November 22 at 7 PM - 8:30 PM
WHERE: Henderson Hall, Napier Boys High School, Chambers Street
Civil Defence invites everyone who lives or works in Marewa-Napier South to attend a community meeting to talk about our hazards that can cause an emergency. It is important we understand the potential impacts of those hazards and have thought about how we will look after each other and ourselves when this happens.
This community meeting is being organised by the Marewa-Napier South Community Resilience Planning Team; a group of local people collaborating with Civil Defence to enable us to look after ourselves before, during, and after an emergency.
Recent events highlight the need for us to be prepared. Please support this very important initiative - come along to the meeting and bring your friends and neighbours too.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

60.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
23.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.6% ... It is complicated
