The heart is the essence of life and has inherently warm and caring connotations. It also reflects the good that St John does in the community, and invites those who contribute to feel like they too have a heart of gold.

Taking the time to talk

Don't end up with;
“If only I had talked to my family about what I want for my funeral”.

It’s not always easy to think about, let alone talk about your own death. But if you take the time to consider how you would like to be fare-welled and talk about it with your family, then you could save your family some stress when the time comes. Instead of having to make decisions about coffin finishes and song sheets, your family can focus on supporting each other in their bereavement.

Tsunami warning sirens to sound on Sunday

Media Team from Christchurch City Council

The sirens will be tested on Sunday at 11am.

They will sound for up to three minutes and will only be heard within a few blocks of the coast between Brooklands and Taylors Mistake.

If the sirens sound for more than 10 minutes it is no longer a test and you should move inland to higher ground.
