Second significant flooding event impacts hundreds of Wairoa homes.

The rural East Coast town of Wairoa has been significantly impacted by a second catastrophic flooding event. On June 26, 2024, hundreds of homes were damaged by flooding which has left whanau homeless. Wairoa had still not recovered from Cyclone Gabrielle in 2023, when hundreds of homes in a different area of town also flooded. These events have had a devastating impact on our community and our hearts go out to everyone who has been affected.
