Emergency Mobile Alert - this Sunday!
A nationwide test of the Emergency Mobile Alert system is happening on Sunday 25 November between 6pm and 7pm.
It doesn’t matter which network you are on. Any capable phone in the target area during the broadcast period should receive the alert
Emergency Mobile Alerts are not meant to replace other emergency alerts, or the need to take action after natural warnings.
You still need to be prepared for an emergency and you should not wait to get an alert before you act. If you feel your life is in danger, don’t wait for an official warning. Take immediate action.

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.
He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
