Waimakariri Civil Defence Emergency Management will be hosting a volunteer exercise this Saturday 11 November.
All of our volunteer teams (NZRT12 response team and the Emergency Support Team’s Welfare Support and Operational Support sections) will participate and will operate a Civil Defence Centre at the Rangiora Borough School, an Incident Control Point in the Service Centre carpark, and a Community Emergency Hub at the Rangiora Scout Den.
You're invited to come and see how a Community Emergency Hub functions at 30 Church Street anytime between 9:30am and 11:30am. Our Operational Support volunteers will be operating a Star Link community internet connection which could be offered to isolated community following a major event.
