I will never forget that night and the following week it was painful and for many the pain hasn't ended and never will 🙏❤️

Heard of 10 rural families hurting this week: Power STILL out. Generators the order of the day, whenever they return to work on their trashed homes and land. So a few friends and I did them up a wee box of kai to maybe make their week a tad less horrid 🥰 #CycloneGabrielle

Wondering why 30 stopbanks in Hawkes Bay failed? Most were built to just a 50 or 100-year return period. But the rainfall in #CycloneGabrielle was a one in 400+ year event in many places. We need a radical rethink of flood 'protection'

Six months on since Cyclone Gabrielle and residents of flood-damaged homes are still in absolute limbo #NZ #Newshub #CycloneGabrielle #CycloneGabrielle NZ
Still dealing with cyclone Gabrielle fallout. Probably won't ever get all the trees cut up, only so much you can do in a day 🥺 #cyclonegabrielle
