Appco Group UK personnel are happy that Chris Kiely and his team of nine, working with Appco New Zealand, had a narrow escape when disaster struck in the form of the 6.3 magnitude earthquake that hit Christchurch, New Zealand on February 22.
Chris, who is the Managing Director of a company associated to Appco Group New Zealand, was conducting a Training Day in his office when the earthquake struck. He managed to exit safely, along with his team and watched on in horror and the building adjacent to theirs collapsed. Chris' office was destroyed, but alternate arrangements are being made.
“We are all really lucky to be safe, but are shaken by the horrific event, “said Chris Kiely.
“We’re giving full support to the Christchurch team as they overcome this experience. We organised flights to Auckland over the weekend for them and they will work with the team there for several weeks, and also attend the Rally taking place on March 5”, said Appco Group VP Stewart Hartley.
