Just a friendly reminder that tsunami siren testing will be conducted by Christchurch CDEM this Sunday 1 April 2018 at 11am. Could you please take note and distribute to your networks as necessary.

The tsunami sirens installed along Christchurch’s coastline from Brooklands to Taylors Mistake will be tested as part of a biannual testing exercise to coincide with daylight savings.

The sirens will sound for up to three minutes and can usually be heard a few blocks from the coastline.

If you live near the coast, it’s a good time to check whether you are in a tsunami evacuation zone and to work out a plan with your family.

Older people can worry about having a fall, so much so that their activity reduces and they move less. Their strength decreases, affecting their balance and the risk of a fall increases. We want to know how many Neighbourly members who are over 65 have had a fall or fear falling?

We value our older people and want them to stay well and independent. We want them to Live Stronger for Longer. We’ll share more about why we’re asking next week.
