We have had hundreds of staff working in the worst of weather yesterday and through the night to remove trees, debris and secure buildings from storm damage. While the clean-up will be extensive over the next few weeks, we would like to thank everyone who has worked so hard during the storm in really difficult conditions.

We continue to make assessments on facilities and venues for storm damage this weekend.
