Have just done a run via Saxton Field and the racecourse.
Ground crew URGENTLY NEED bottled Powerade and Gatorade electrolyte drinks.

HUHA currently still require pens / cages for animals, primarily small ones more for cats, dogs and smaller animals.

No doubt there will be other things required by these drop off points but these are the most crucial at the moment.

Thanks to all - everyone is so incredibly grateful for our community support.

Homemade cooking and baking for fire

Alison from Britannia Heights

I have just had a message that the Wakatu Marae would gratefully receive any homemade goods for evacuees. So am sure the Catholic Church on Williams St in Richmond would also be the same.
FYI: I believe the AFs have now managed to establish a cooking setup for ground crew.
Cheers everyone!

Want a Slice of Convenience?

Mainland NZ

There's nothing worse than a soggy sammy. The trick to keeping kids interested in eating their lunch (and stopping yourself getting bored making it) is mixing it up with variations on a theme that you know they already love.

There's nothing worse than a soggy sammy. The trick to keeping kids interested in eating their lunch (and stopping yourself getting bored making it) is mixing it up with variations on a theme that you know they already love.

So instead of a plain ham and cheese sandwich on sliced bread, try folding slices of ham and cheese into wedges of crunchy baguette or a soft bap. Save time and stress by using Mainland’s convenient sliced cheese – available in Edam, Tasty, Colby and Swiss to suit your family’s taste.

Head to mainland.co.nz for some quick and easy cheesy ideas.
