Acknowledging the community of Manurewa

Resolution number MR/2020/39

MOVED by Chairperson J Allan, seconded by Member A Candy:

That the Manurewa Local Board:

a) acknowledge the community of Manurewa during the COVID-19 epidemic which has seen the country move to alert level four and lockdown. Our front-line essential services workers have selflessly put themselves at increased risk in hospitals, supermarkets, pharmacies, on our streets, on public transport, and across our community.

We acknowledge the personal sacrifices people have made through self-isolation such as not being able to visit sick friends and relatives, or attend births and funerals. Our thoughts go out to the families of those around the country who have lost loved ones due to COVID-19 and those currently in intensive care units, particularly at Middlemore Hospital.

We also acknowledge the significant challenges and financial burdens many of our people face as the result of reduced incomes, job losses and business closures. Through your service, sacrifices and challenges, many lives have been saved – particularly the lives of grandparents and those with underlying health conditions. Thank you to the community organisations that have mobilised as essential services to offer support and wraparound to our most vulnerable communities.

Thank you for your commitment to the people of Manurewa. Kia kaha.
