The following letter of support has been received from the Central Branch of the NZPFU.

I have been asked to send a letter of support to all of the Auckland Firefighters and Officers regarding the present lockdown

Our Region  was at Level 4, down to Level 3 now at Level 2.  Being at Level 4 was awful.  We appreciate what you are going through.

With new cases identified every day it looks as though you will be at Level 4 for some time.

This is to let you know, on behalf of Firefighters and  Officers in Region 3, you have our full support during this time.

If there is anything we can do for you, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Could you please send this message of support to your Local.

Many Thanks
Rob Hutchison
Central Region Secretary
NZPFU
