As of the 20th of December, fires are unable to be lit in the council area of Thames-Coromandel and extending to the islands of the mainland.

District Manager of Fire and Emergency NZ, Daryl Trim, has shared that while open-air fires are banned as well as the use of private fireworks, holiday-makers and locals can still undertake a range of activities that includes the use of fire such as for barbecues.

"We are about to see an influx of people into Thames-Coromandel and we want to reduce the risk of fires getting out of control as much.'

'Being cautious and following the restrictions around fire will help keep you and your whānau and friends safe." Daryl Trim says.

Here's what you need to know:
- Open-air fires are banned in Thames-Coromandel and the islands off the mainland.
- Hangi, umu and gas-fired barbecues are still permitted.
- Restrictions will also be in place for the use of private fireworks.

To find out further information on the fire seasons and the use of fireworks, head to www.checkitsalright.nz...

In neighbourhoods across New Zealand, kids are looking forward to a Christmas that may not happen.

Forced to choose between food or bills, hard-working parents like Melody worry whether they’ll be able to provide even the simplest Christmas meal for their children.

“I’ll only eat dinner 2-3 times a week so that the children have enough food. This is very stressful… a lot of crying and minimal sleep.” 

Food insecurity is the everyday reality for 98.8% of the families Variety helps.

Please donate today to provide grocery support for families like Melody’s this Christmas.
