We are holding a Public Protest outside 3a Rochdale St tomorrow (Saturday 22nd April) at 1 pm to voice our objection.
Why should you care - this ruling has set a precedence - any commercial operation can now get consent to set up a Satellite operation in any residential street in Christchurch. Fancy a takeaway shop, liquor outlet or a cafe to set up in your street - there are plently of zonned commerical areas available in Christchurch - why take over residential streets.
If you can't make it tomorrow send an email to your local councilor, MP, The Mayor and the planners at the Council to voice your opposition.

Have your power prices gone up?

Electric Kiwi

Households are being told to shop around for better power deals as some power companies lifted their prices in April. On the flip side, smaller companies like Electric Kiwi won't be raising power prices this year and are challenging the big power companies to do the same.

I am thinking of holding some evening healthy food cookery classes at The Abberley Park Hall. These would last approx 90 minutes and I could focus on anything people want or feel they need- how to make your diet healthier, incorporating more vegetables into your diet, ways to keep your body alkaline to ward off disease and the importance of probiotics and examples of fermenting foods would be a few examples. Would anyone be keen to come along or does anyone have any ideas of things they would like to learn? There would be a charge for each class but it wouldn't be much. A great chance to learn and make new friends at the same time. Please post any ideas or comments below. Thank you
