As you will be aware, we have a continually evolving situation with COVID-19 (or Coronavirus) having been declared a global pandemic by World Health Organisation & as the New Zealand Government continues to make new recommendations.
Our thoughts go out to everyone who has been affected by the impact of COVID-19.
As the situation continues to develop, our utmost priority will be the wellbeing of our team, clients, suppliers and community.
Recent government announcements have had a significant impact on everyone in this period of global uncertainty. As a result, we have been seriously considering what actions we can take to reduce the risks & ensure business continuity & service levels to everyone as the pandemic worsens.
There are a number of valuable resources online, and we encourage you to monitor & review these regularly.

We will continue to work closely with industry bodies on strategies, initiatives and best practice to keep multi-unit Communities safe and update you in due course. In the interim we reiterate the experts recommendations:
Prevention – how to protect yourself and others
- Cough or sneeze into your elbow or by covering your mouth and nose with tissues.
- Put used tissues in the bin or a bag immediately.
- Wash your hands with soap and water often (for at least 20 seconds).
- Try to avoid close contact with people who are unwell.
- Don’t touch your eyes, nose or mouth if your hands are not clean.
- Avoid personal contact, such as kissing, sharing cups or food with sick people.
- Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces and objects, such as doorknobs.
- Stay home if you feel unwell.
- Call Healthline on 0800 358 5453 if you have any symptoms and have been to any countries or territories of concern or have been in close contact with someone confirmed with COVID-19.
