Survey
Hi all, could you please pass this on to friends, families, school contacts, etc. so that we can better know the needs of our community. Also please do the survey yourselves 😊
Sarah Wylie, a social researcher is currently undertaking research on Burnside and the surrounding area for two local churches, Burnside Campus - Christchurch Elim (Grahams Rd) and St Timothy's (Kendal Ave). We are keen to better understand our community and its strengths, challenges, and needs, to help us tailor the activities and supports we collectively offer, complementing the great things already happening locally.
if you live in this area, it would be awesome to hear from you via this survey. It will take a few minutes and it won't identify you - what you say is anonymous.
The survey will be online until 29 August 2022.

Poll: What could the Christchurch City Council fund if it didn't have to pay GST on rates?
Christchurch mayor Phil Mauger says GST on rates, currently taken by central government, would be better spent locally.
The comments follow an Infometrics analysis that found over $1.1 billion of rates revenue nationwide was collected by the Government in 2022 as GST.
According to Infometrics, $88.5m of that came from Christchurch city ratepayers. It would be enough to save the Christ Church Cathedral from ruin; restore the Dux de Lux seven times over; cover both the Art Centre and Orana Wildlife Park’s request for regular public funding for over 26 years; contribute to light rail in Greater Christchurch; or get the South Library rebuild completed.
