Civil Defence Karamea/Little Wanganui Information

In most emergencies you should be able to stay in your home. Plan to be able to look after yourself and your household for at least 7 days.

  • Create a household emergency plan
  • Work out what supplies you will need at home, in your car and at work
  • Think about how you would get through with no power, cell phone or running water

Karamea Community Arts Council

The Karamea Community Arts Council (KCAC) was originally established in 1992 to assist the Buller District Council in distributing funding from Creative New Zealand’s Creative Communities fund. Many grants were given out until there was a change in the nature of the funding distribution. Currently Creative Communities funding is now applied to directly from Creative Communities Buller via the Buller District Council, and the Karamea area has a representative at these meetings.
