There's been a fire in your neighbourhood
Recently there was a fire in your neighbourhood.
Big or small, a fire can cause significant financial and emotional stress.
If you have a fire, don't be afraid to call 111.
Check your smoke alarms. If your Whanau don't have smoke alarms, give them the gift of life and get them one for Christmas.
Ensure that everyone staying at your place over the Christmas period knows your escape plan and your safe meeting place.
Stay safe out there!

Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
