Mother of All Clean Up River Event 2023 on Sat 13th May

Julie Tobbell from Somerfield Residents Association

Somerfield Residents Association is once again, delighted to be part of the annual Mother Of All Clean Ups event.
We will be meeting & having a debrief at 10 am at the Barrington St / Cashmere Rd bridge.
This is a great & fun annual community event organised by the Opawaho- Heathcote River Network & annually supported by our SRA Committee for tidying up the beautiful Ernle Clark Reserve banks!!

Thanks to Glenda Megget & our SRA organising team for assisting with this event once again!
No one is allowed to enter the river for rubbish- however, a record will be kept of any rubbish in the river & will be picked up by CCC staff after.
BYO gloves - otherwise there may be some spare gloves & bags etc provided.
Children are most welcome but need to be closely supervised by parents or care givers please.
We look forward to seeing you all on Saturday 13th May 2023!!

A riddle to start the festive season 🌲🎁🌟

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

Do you think you know the answer? Simply 'Like' this post if you know the answer and the big reveal will be posted in the comments at 2pm on the day!

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? πŸ’°πŸŒ²

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
