To enable members of the Christchurch Local and their families to spend some time away from their devastated City, we are asking members in the Northern Branch Region who have either space available in their homes or perhaps a holiday home or bach that they would be happy to make available to members from Christchurch to use, to please contact the Northern Branch Office in Auckland.

Our contact details are ph. (09) 448 5118 or email auckland@nzpfu.org.nz.

To enable us to collate your offers of assistance, please provide the following:

  1. Your contact details.
  2. How many people you can accommodate.
  3. Location (including address) and type of accommodation, eg. holiday home.
  4. Dates available.

Your kind assistance is greatly appreciated and, hopefully, will give some of our Christchurch members and their families a small respite from the very difficult and stressful situation they find themselves in.
