Prepare for an emergency this Christmas!

The Team from Marlborough District Council

Like a lot of you, I’m really trying to cut back on spending this Christmas. However, I’ve just had a great gift idea from a friend and I thought I’d share it with you! She’s put together a couple of emergency ‘grab bags’ for both her children, using backpacks and a range of useful items (all bought on special). Better still, there’s enough room for each person to add some personal gear. This definitely ticks the ‘good ideas’ box for me!

Here are some useful links to help you prepare for an emergency:

Poll: Could we live without public bins?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Many public rubbish bins are being removed by councils due to the large costs of regularly emptying them. Do you think we can adapt and live without them?

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the We Say You Say column of your local paper.

Hi, still wanting to ask in the group for some fishing gears that we can use with our son. Good people have already given him. Hoping we could have too so we can join him.😊

Anyone in the group would have stuff we can use for a bridal shower please? Our friend is getting married and we would like to throw her a surprise. Hoping to get as much decorations or paraphernalia we can use for Friday. Thanks in advance😊
