Northland Region Civil Defence Emergency Management

During an emergency - If life is threatened dial 111 to contact emergency services

In Northland, we have a Northland Region Civil Defence Emergency Management (CDEM) Group that manages activities. The Northland Regional Council and the region’s three District Councils, along with agencies such as the police and fire service, are all members of this group.

The CDEM Group works together to:

  • reduce the potential effects of hazards;
  • promote community and council readiness (preparedness) to respond to emergencies; and 
  • help the community to recover after an event.
