We work better when we work together
Hi neighbours, Catherine here from Marlborough CDEM (Civil Defence and Emergency Management). I hope you’re enjoying the longer evenings. If you’re out and about in the evening, you might see our volunteer response team training with our partner agencies such as Red Cross, St John’s ambulance or staff from the Woodbourne air base. Feel free to come and say hello!
Like you, Marlborough Civil Defence relies on the support of others in an emergency - we work better when we work together. Keep on talking to each other and enjoy these spring days.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
