Latest issue of Ignite is out now

There is lots to read including the first round of training for our Specialist Water Response teams, a simulated 'aeroplane crash' in Wellington, and our response to the devastation caused by Cyclone Gabrielle.

We recently conducted training for swift water rescue which has kick-started the formal building of this capability within Fire and Emergency. 

A bus was used in an 'air crash' training exercise in Wellington.

Cyclone Gabrielle caused a state of emergency to be declared.

 And portable pumps were put to the test at Palmerston North Station.

Print copies are now with your local station, and District or Region office. You can also download a digital version as a PDF(external link)
