"The new defibrillator was donated by the ARL Lawyers Charitable Trust and will be with the operational support vehicle in case of emergency call outs. Vehicles can be called out at any moment to any part of the valley so it's important to know that every area is covered, said Dave Wyles Jones of the Wainuiomata Volunteer Fire Brigade"
The defibrillator is a part of a full emergency first response kit being put together by the Brigade.
Through it's Charitable Trust, ARL Lawyers provide opportunities and tangible items to individuals, groups and organisations in the local Lower Hutt community.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
