What's Up, Welland?
A podcast about all things City of Welland: but more than that, it's about the community and the people who make it a premier place to live, work, play, and invest. Join us on What's Up, Welland? to learn more about what's happening in the City of Welland but also about municipal operations that affect everyone. Now in its second season!
What's Up, Welland?
What do you call an emergency vehicle made out of potatoes? A yambulance.
When a community faces a crisis or disaster, who’re you gonna call?
If you’re living in any of Niagara’s municipalities, you can count on the Region’s Community Emergency Response Team to show up ready to support. This group of swift-acting, certified staff and volunteers is affectionately known as CERT.
Emergency supplies need distributing – they’re on it.
Sharing relief efforts post-disaster – they’ve got you covered.
Grant Durfey and John Hoadley join the #WhatsUpWelland conversation to highlight this one-of-a-kind team and share stories about the emergency response experience.
Oh, and this team is growing. So if CERT volunteering piques your interest, be sure to act on that curiosity and check out niagararegion.ca/emergency for more info.
