A new app will help Selwyn residents keep up with the latest pandemic information and details on Council services and facilities.

The Council has launched the Selwyn Updates app to help residents with easy access to the latest information and to stay up to date with future changes and initiatives.

The app can be found at covid-19.selwyn.govt.nz. Council Group Manager Communication and Customers Stephen Hill says during the pandemic there has been a constant stream of changes to how Council services are operating during the different alert levels.

“We’ve worked hard to keep people informed about what’s open and what’s changed – through our website, social media and local news outlets,” he says. “Along with most other organisations we’ve had to adapt the way we work – including developing new online services and changes to the way we interact with customers.

“This new app will be another useful tool to help people keep up with these changes and the best ways to access our services and find out what facilities are open, or what support is available.”

The app can be download to any smartphone or device by visiting the site and clicking the download link on the right of the url on Android, or on Apple by selecting ‘share’ and ‘add to home screen’.
