You can help us save lives
Hi neighbours, it's Baz here from the Nelson Marlborough Rescue Helicopter. Our fundraising campaign to help us purchase two new sets of Night Vision Goggles has started out nicely with a lot of support from the community, thanks guys.
We are now at $4,090 thanks to a generous donation from Blenheim Pak n Save. Just last night we flew over to the Motueka Valley for a medical emergency and the original location they wanted us to land was shifted due to hazardous overhead wires which we picked up with the night vision goggles. These goggles really are vital in our safety and also finding you.

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)
.
