Every year, summer means an influx of Kiwis to beaches, rivers and campgrounds all over Aotearoa. Kiwis love summer – it’s in our DNA – but if we’re honest, we’re not always very good at it. Stay safe with a few tips from Westpac:

- Don’t turn your back to the waves.
- Always take your lifejacket.
- Tell someone when you’ll be back.
- Don’t drive when you are tired.

And remember if you stray too far, the Choppers can help. In the last 12 months, Wellington’s Westpac Rescue Helicopter flew 415 missions keeping Kiwis safe.

Stay safe in Chopper Country.

Tip pick up / drop off

Katrina from Kilbirnie

Hi Neighbours,
I have various items that need to be picked up from Roseneath and dropped off at the tip if anyone can help?
A van would be sufficient to fit everything.
Any takers?
Cheers,
Katrina
