More Kiwis are off to assist in the fight against Ebola.

The New Zealand Red Cross has sent 14 nurses to Africa since August.

Another three, and a sanitation engineer, are heading over next month.

They'll be joined by Red Cross communications manager Corinne Ambler, who says the fight isn't over yet.

"We've moved up to a place called Kono, Sierra Leone, and that is where the outbreak has moved. So we have nurses up there."

Ms Ambler says there are still new cases, and places where it's far from contained.

"It would be great to be there, to be able to put out that last press release saying that th fight is over, and I think we're a long way from that at the moment."

She says she'll be working with local communities, to educate them on preventing the spread of Ebola.
