CRRA Seeks Volunteers For Community Call Group

During the last two major weather events it was reported that a number of residents have been left isolated because of poor internet access, loss of power, property flooding, and impassable roads.

The CRRA have discussed setting up a Community Call Group who in times of an emergency act as ‘Local Coordinators’. It is proposed that these Coordinators, in times of emergency, will check on, or arrange for others in their immediate vicinity to check on the welfare of residents and assist with the reporting of any local terrain damage that needs clearing, repairing, or reporting to Civil Defence. Ensuring that the welfare of residents and their safety is addressed.

The CRRA are looking for local people who in times of any future emergencies would be prepared to assist in coordinating a local neighbourhood plan to ensure that no one is left isolated and any major issues that have occurred are addressed by the responsible authority.

The CRRA look forward to your comments, including names of volunteers who may be prepared to assist in future emergencies. Please contact either Val Gardner, 021 415 912, Lynn Chatfield 09 415 6207, or Bruce Cowan 027 235 2041.
