Be a water hero and be in to win!
For the first seven days (at least) following an earthquake, you will be relying on your own stored water and wastewater plans. We want to know if you have what it takes to be a Water Hero!
Water heroes are people who are prepared. You may not have any control when it comes to a major earthquake and its impact on the region, but you do have control about how you will respond and how prepared you and your family are.
Let us know how you're going by filling in our quick quiz and you'll be in the draw to win a Weber Baby Q BBQ and an emergency water pack!
Competition closes 5pm, Monday 4 March 2019.
