Help us fix up our Clubroom Kitchen
Riccarton players is a community run, charity status, amateur theatre group in Christchurch www.riccartonplayers.co.nz...
We moved into our new clubrooms 6 months ago after finally being able to find a suitable premises to rehearse, store our costumes, props and sets, have committee meetings and hold social events for our members. It has been a very long journey after losing our theatre in the Christchurch Earthquakes. But we've got through together moving from venue to venue still performing plays, musicals and kids shows - entertaining our community and giving our members a sense of belonging.
Our new premises kitchen leaves a lot to be desired and it is our aim to fit out a kitchen that would be more suitable, efficient and feel like a nice place to meet, share a coffee, a snack and host social events for our members. It currently really only has a sink and a small bench. We'd love to have an oven, decent fridge, bench to prepare food, do the dishes and have instant boiling water.
It would also be a lovely 'reward' for all those who have stuck by us and way to maintain and grow our membership.
A neighbourly AMI Grant would assist us greatly in making this project a reality.

Further important update to all Neighbourly members
Dear Neighbours,
We wanted to update you with what we have uncovered in regards to the potential Neighbourly data breach which we were alerted to on Thursday January 1.
Over the past few days we have worked to understand whether our members’ data had been accessed without authorisation and, if so, the extent of the breach.
We have now confirmed that there was a breach of some data from our registered users. We are now satisfied that the breach was quickly contained, and we have restored the Neighbourly site and services.
Our investigations have shown that there was unauthorised access of Neighbourly data, which included our registered members’ names, email addresses, GPS coordinates, forum posts and member communications. It did not include passwords but some publicly advertised event and business addresses were included.
Following best practice, we will look to seek a court injunction against any use of the material.
We want to apologise to our members for this occurrence and any concerns it may have caused you over the past few days. We have, of course, addressed the issue that allowed the theft to occur, and we are satisfied that the site is secure for use by all of our members. We will work closely with all our staff to ensure we have the most robust processes in place to prevent it from happening again.
Thank you to our members who contacted us over this period and for the understanding you have shown as we work through the complex issues associated with cyber theft.
