Plan for an emergency before your holiday!

The Team from Marlborough District Council

Hey neighbours, I hope you’re now on the wind-down side of Christmas! If you’re heading off on holiday shortly, please give a little thought to how you’d manage if an emergency strikes while you’re away from home.

Check whether your holiday spot is in a tsunami zone and plan what you’d do if you need to evacuate. A local source tsunami could arrive in minutes, so there won’t be time for an official warning. It is important to recognise the natural warning signs and act quickly.

Remember, LONG or STRONG: GET GONE.

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

Festive Farmers' Market Christmas Market

Ron from Fairhall - Renwick - Woodbourne

SharpAs Tool Tips
I’ll be at today’s Marlborough Farmers' Market from 3–6pm — a great last chance to get your knives sharpened before a busy Christmas Day.
If you have knives, tools, or other items that need sharpening, come along to the special Farmers’ Market today.

Please note: aside from the statutory days, I’ll still be open.
Cheers,
Ron
