National Volunteer Week - 18 to 24 June 2017

The Team from Citizens Advice Christchurch Area

This positive message is about celebrating what volunteers bring to their communities. It is important to recognise volunteering and the place it has in keeping our communities strong and healthy.

The benefits of being a volunteer are well-documented. There's better health and the feel-good endorphins that volunteering releases; around how volunteering can help with job prospects; and other health benefits such as extending longevity and reducing depression in many people. As poet and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson observed, It is one of the beautiful compensations of life that no man can sincerely help another without helping himself.

National Volunteer Week is a great opportunity to start volunteering or, if you already volunteer, it's a great time to invite a friend to join you. The positive message for the Week celebrates the joy that volunteers bring to their communities. It also reminds us that volunteers reap the reward of a happier, more engaged life because they feel connected to their communities.

“Volunteers do not necessarily have the time; they just have the heart.” — Elizabeth Andrew

I would like to use this opportunity to recognise the huge amount of work done by just over 100 Volunteers for the Christchurch Area Citizens Advice Bureau (3 Branches and 2 satellites). There is extensive training to start with and then they commit to on going training to keep up to date. I am in awe of the service you provide with diligence, care, sympathy and empathy to help anyone who seeks out assistance.

Hi Neighbours!
Two years ago I ventured out to develop my own business. For me to open a business was totally new. I should have probably done a market survey long ago, but I had no clue how to do it before! Now, as part of my small business management course at Te Ao Wananga, I could finally make one. I would appreciate your time to respond to this short 10 question survey if you are interested in personal development in any way.

Statute of limitation for claim & also change in District Court limit

FYI Just had the following from my lawyers newsletter.. Not sure though what happens about/where that leaves botched repairs/re-repairs - suggest you get legal advice

"Limitation: TIME RUNNING OUT ON CLAIMS"

"Last year insurers issued statements about dates on which they would rely on a defence under the Limitation Act(s) that require court proceedings to be brought within 6 years on which a homeowner could first sue otherwise the claim is no longer enforceable. Those dates are fast approaching."

"AA, Vero, FMG, MAS, and the IAG brands agreed not to plead a limitation defence for any residential earthquake damage claim where proceedings are filed in Court before 4 September 2017. Southern Response will not rely on a limitation defence until 4 September 2018. If an insured does not sue before these dates the claim dies. This includes claims that are under cap, but may go over cap post limitation expiry. Insureds ought to prepare to sue now."

"District Court limit now $350,000.00
"

"On 1 March 2017 the District Courts Act 2016 came into effect. The District Court can now accept claims up to $350,000 rather than the previous $200,000.

This will enable many insurance/EQC earthquake claims to be filed in the District Court with its cheaper filing fee ($200 vs $1350). The District Court also operates a fast track for earthquake claims shortening time frames for events"
