A message from The Princess Royal following Cyclone Gabrielle
Published 15 February 2023
You should all be proud of the resilience, strength and care for your communities you are showing in the face of adversity.
My thoughts are with all New Zealanders whose homes or livelihoods have been affected by Cyclone Gabrielle.
I have been given the opportunity to visit the national disaster and crisis headquarters today and I am impressed by the major efforts being undertaken by first responders, local and national agencies to ensure the best possible support for everyone, especially those still at risk.
I admire the courage of the people of Aotearoa during this alarming and difficult time.
You should all be proud of the resilience, strength and care for your communities you are showing in the face of adversity.
Kia Kaha
