Staying home over the break?
The long weekend is the perfect time to make your place safer for an earthquake with these steps:
• Find out where you can turn off your water and gas mains
• Check your chimney for any signs of wear and tear, or damage

These simple actions can keep your whānau safer in case of a big shake, so tick them off and make the most of your break.
