Emergency Response in Ōtaki Gorge 🚁 Last Sunday, our Westpac Rescue Helicopter team faced a challenging rescue after a van plunged off the road into the river in Ōtaki Gorge.

Upon reaching the scene, our crew spotted three people stranded on the rocks, waving for help. Working with Wellington District Police, Fire and Emergency NZ's Ōtaki Volunteer Fi
