Affordable living isn’t the only reason people many people say they live in Christchurch.

The city has easy access to the outdoors and recreation options including tramping, skiing, boating, hunting, fishing, and mountain biking.

Christchurch is colder than the main North Island cities during winter, but is also drier than all the other main cities, and sunnier and less windy than Wellington.

Baby knitting

Lesley from Bishopdale

At night while watching TV I knit baby cardys, bootees, beanies and have a couple of bags that I would like to donate to a worthy cause. It is all wool and would range from newborn to about 6mths old.
Would anyone have any suggestions for a place that would appreciate it.
