Thank you from Northland fire services
Our recent call for new volunteers has been a great success and we’re very proud of the response we’ve had from the community.
We’ve had numerous offers of support, which highlights the generous nature of our community. To those who have stepped up to be a volunteer, you’ve shown us a true passion to keep our communities safe. On behalf of Northland’s fire services, I thank you for stepping up when we needed you most.
We’ll always need more volunteers, so if you, or someone you know, would be interested in volunteering for Fire and Emergency New Zealand, please get in touch with your local brigade.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
