Emergency Response
In the Waiwera Valley

The Community Response Group is a group of volunteers that plan and respond to emergencies and support affected communities. The group works closely with Auckland Emergency Management to ensure that resources are effectively distributed and that vulnerable populations are identified and supported. By leveraging local knowledge and networks, the Community Response Group helps to maintain a safe place, communicate vital information, and foster community resilience, ensuring a coordinated and compassionate response to an emergency.

Emergency Response Plan

The Waiwera Valley CRG has created an emergency response plan that identifies hazard and risk information to provide a clear understanding of the potential dangers that could impact our community. These hazards and risks outline the nature, characteristics, and potential effects of the hazard. The plan also outlines the actions that can be taken in any of these emergency situations.
