Almost nothing in living memory will have affected as many New Zealanders as this week’s catastrophic earthquake in Christchurch. Given Abel’s own roots in Christchurch, this has been something we have felt keenly. Our thoughts go out to all the families who have lost loved ones, to anyone still waiting on news of people who are missing and to everyone working to provide relief and get the city on its feet again.
Times like this of course bring people together. It has been great to see so many people offer help and support. One fund that we have contributed to is the Christchurch Mayoral Fund. We’d urge you to make a donation if you can give anything at all.
