Rawhiti<br />

Domain<br />

sports<br />

facility<br />

goes to<br />

hearing<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

A 10-YEAR plan to open a $2.2<br />

million sports facility in New<br />

Brighton has taken a major step<br />

forward.<br />

A city council hearings panel<br />

was scheduled to meet yesterday<br />

which could give the green light<br />

for the Eastern Community<br />

Sports and Recreation Inc to<br />

lease the land it needs in Rawhiti<br />

Domain for the facility.<br />

But a stumbling block to work<br />

starting continues to be money.<br />

The group has raised $675,000<br />

for the project. Chairman Peter<br />

Burley said yesterday he hoped<br />

the project would start early next<br />

year and would look how the<br />

shortfall could be made up.<br />

It plans to relay the current<br />

tennis and netball courts with<br />

astro-turf and a put a purposebuilt<br />

canopy over them. The<br />

canopy set to cost $1.3 million.<br />

Mr Burley said he would be<br />

“pretty stunned” if the hearing<br />

panel did anything other than<br />

support the facility.<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />

from the editor’s desk<br />

Pedestrian crossing could go<br />

IT LOOKS like there is overwhelming<br />

support for the new sports facility in<br />

Rawhiti Doman (see page 1).<br />

The bulk of the submissions were in<br />

favour.<br />

And why would’t there be. The sports<br />

complex is a no-brainer.<br />

The project has been 10 years in the making and yesterday a<br />

hearings panel was scheduled to meet (it was after our deadline)<br />

to give the thumbs up or thumbs down for land to be leased for<br />

the project.<br />

But a stumbling continues to be money.<br />

The Eastern Community Sports and Recreation Inc has raised<br />

only a third of the $2.2 million they need.<br />

They have an ambitous plan to start work early next year. Lets<br />

hope it happens.<br />

Landmark could be floodlit<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

THE ICONIC New Brighton clock<br />

tower could be floodlit.<br />

The city council is investigating<br />

the possibility of illuminating the<br />

historical landmark built in the<br />

<strong>19</strong>30s.<br />

The idea was suggested at a<br />

Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board meeting by its chairwoman<br />

Kim Money.<br />

She said it<br />

would be nice<br />

to give the clock<br />

tower “some life in<br />

the evening” and<br />

it is a good opportunity<br />

to do it<br />

Kim Money<br />

while the tower is<br />

being upgraded.<br />

“Lighting can just enliven and<br />

make really beautiful statements of<br />

pieces,” she said.<br />

The city council started work on<br />

earthquake and historical damage<br />

repairs of the clock tower last<br />

month. They rae expected to be<br />

completed by September.<br />

City council staff are also following<br />

up on controlling weeds<br />

growing through the tiles under the<br />

scaffolding surrounding the tower.<br />

BOTTLE LAKE FOREST<br />

City council staff will now<br />

ensure the Waitikiri Drive gates<br />

at Bottle Lake Forest Park are<br />

closed at 10pm all year round. It<br />

comes after the Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board noted public<br />

concern over the inconsistent<br />

night-time closing of the security<br />

gates at the park.<br />

MEMORIAL TREES AT QE II<br />

The Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board has asked<br />

the city council to investigate a<br />

process for residents who wish<br />

to plant a memorial tree at QE II<br />

Park. The board’s chairwoman<br />

Kim Money said there has been<br />

a request from a resident to plant<br />

a tree. She said the city council<br />

is looking at the master plan<br />

for the remaining area of QE II<br />

Park and is waiting to hear from<br />

city council staff about how the<br />

process fits in with the plan. “It<br />

is lovely to think that somebody<br />

wants to do that”.<br />

SWEEPING UP RICHMOND<br />

City council staff plan to sweep<br />

the streets in Richmond more<br />

often in a bid to keep the area<br />

tidier. A report presented to the<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board said the area<br />

outside the Richmond Village<br />

shopping centre is swept every six<br />

weeks, which is less than other<br />

RICHMOND MEN’S SHED<br />

Avebury House Community<br />

Trust is asking the public to lend<br />

a hand to get the new Richmond<br />

Men’s Shed up and running.<br />

It is asking for spare tools and<br />

donations. The money raised will<br />

go towards getting new windows<br />

and a door lock. The shed will be<br />

located next to Avebury House<br />

on Eveleyn Couzins Ave. If you<br />

EDGEWARE POOL<br />

A Give-a-little campaign was set<br />

begin fundraising for the new<br />

Edgeware Pool. The pool has a<br />

budget of $5 million, which will<br />

see a 25m outdoor pool and a<br />

14m indoor pool. A launch event<br />

to unveil the new logo was set to<br />

be held at the old pool entrance<br />

Plans to rebuild yacht club revealed<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

PLANS FOR the long-awaited<br />

rebuild of the Pleasant Point<br />

Yacht Club have been revealed.<br />

A new club house, toilets,<br />

changing rooms, start box, committee<br />

room and general storage<br />

area will be included in the<br />

buildings.<br />

Two relocatable classrooms the<br />

club purchased from Canterbury<br />

University will be converted into<br />

the facilities.<br />

It is estimated to cost about<br />

$600,000 which the club has<br />

been fundraising for since 2012.<br />

A new boat shed is also in the<br />

plan, but the club is prioritising<br />

the other two buildings and will<br />

reassess how much additional<br />

money may need to be raised in<br />

the future.<br />

The club has been without<br />

proper facilities for more than<br />

seven years after its old building<br />

at Rat Island was destroyed in<br />

the earthquakes.<br />

In the interim, it has been<br />

using five shipping containers as<br />

makeshift facilities at South New<br />

Brighton Park.<br />

Club commodore Alastair<br />

Burgess said once the buildings<br />

are completed it will be a far<br />

BRIGHT FUTURE: Plans showing what the rebuilt Pleasant Point Yacht Club will look like have<br />

been revealed. ​<br />

more attractive proposition for<br />

the public than going to a yacht<br />

club “living out of a couple of<br />

containers”.<br />

The classrooms are due to arrive<br />

at South New Brighton Park<br />

at the end of August after the<br />

foundations have been laid.<br />

Sewerage, power and water<br />

services have been installed and<br />

are ready to be connected to the<br />

classrooms when they arrive.<br />

Yacht club committee<br />

member Dan O’Sullivan said it<br />

will be a luxury to have electricity<br />

after going without for so<br />

long.<br />

The road to the<br />

club’s rebuild has<br />

been a long one,<br />

with its temporary<br />

facilities targeted<br />

by a suspected arson<br />

attack in 2016.<br />

The club’s<br />

shipping<br />

containers have<br />

also had several<br />

Dan<br />

O’Sullivan<br />

break-ins, with the most recent<br />

on May 29.<br />

Mr O’Sullivan said the locks<br />

were alarmed and nothing was<br />

taken, but a pair of bolt cutters<br />

were left behind.<br />

He said while the club has<br />

“beefed-up” its security, it would<br />

like members of the public to<br />

keep an eye out for suspicious<br />

activity.<br />

Volunteers earn awards<br />

PROVIDING MUCH needed<br />

services to the community has<br />

led to several residents and<br />

organisations being recognised<br />

for their volunteer work in the<br />

eastern suburbs.<br />

They were presented at the<br />

Volunteer Canterbury volunteer<br />

recognition awards last night.<br />

Avebury House Community<br />

Trust’s Andrea Grieve, of Richmond;<br />

the Linwood Avenue<br />

Corner Trust; Shirley Community<br />

of Burwood; and the Delta<br />

Community Support Trust’s van<br />

driving team in Richmond were<br />

recognised.<br />

The recipients were nominated<br />

for the awards by a range of community<br />

not-for-profit organisations.<br />

A founding member in 2002,<br />

Ms Grieve’s commitment to<br />

Avebury House Community<br />

Trust remains. She is involved<br />

with a comprehensive stock-take<br />

and cataloguing of the contents<br />

of Avebury House’s history<br />

room, ensuring the community<br />

of Richmond’s past is preserved<br />

for future generations.<br />

The Delta Community Support<br />

Trust van driving team was<br />

recognised for ensuring rescued<br />

food and bread is picked up, veggie<br />

packs are delivered around<br />

the city, and the vehicles are<br />

always ready to go.<br />

The Linwood Avenue Corner<br />

Trust was described as developing<br />

a “philosophy based on the<br />

privilege of service”. It provides<br />

free programmes to improve<br />

health and provide companionship<br />

for the lonely, isolated and<br />

vulnerable.<br />

Mrs Teague has been volunteering<br />

at the Nail Care Clinic<br />

which is a meeting place for<br />

older people and those with disabilities.<br />

Mrs Giertz volunteers her time<br />

to care for pre-school siblings of<br />

children who attend early intervention<br />

sessions at The Champion<br />

Centre. She was described<br />

in her nomination as providing<br />

“many hours of enjoyment”.<br />

The awards are held annually<br />

as part of National Volunteer<br />

Week.<br />

Bright new banners for Marian<br />

Brightly coloured new banners can now be found at Marian<br />

College. They include Maori kowhaiwhai and mamanu<br />

New fire station for<br />

crew and volunteers<br />

•From page 1<br />

The New Brighton Volunteer<br />

Brigade continued to operate<br />

out of their original premises on<br />

Hawke St.<br />

“We have been sharing a site,<br />

not necessarily a building and<br />

now we have all come together as<br />

one sharing the same building,”<br />

Mr O’Brien said.<br />

He said in a major event<br />

the station is built to be self -<br />

-contained with on site water<br />

and back up power generation<br />

to ensure it can continue<br />

functioning.<br />

“I can’t speak highly enough of<br />

the building, just the lift it is going<br />

to give the people who work<br />

on the station.”<br />

A public open day for the new<br />

station, built by Cook Brothers<br />

Construction, is planned in the<br />

next few weeks.<br />

The station will house two<br />

fire engine pumps, two support<br />

vehicles to act as “troop carriers”<br />

and a four -wheel-drive rural unit<br />

“smoke chaser” designed to get to<br />

inaccessible areas.<br />

The building itself has LED<br />

lighting with kitchen facilities<br />

and a social area.<br />

Mr O’Brien said it has got nice<br />

comfortable facilities that are<br />

easy to keep clean and is more<br />

power efficient than the old stations.<br />

He said it was important the<br />

New Brighton Volunteer Fire<br />

Brigade , which has been running<br />

since <strong>19</strong>08, retained its identity<br />

even though it has now moved to<br />

Wainoni.<br />

Mr O’Brien wanted to assure<br />

New Brighton residents it will<br />

still have a fire station and the<br />

same level of service.<br />

“It is just we are responding<br />

from a different place.”<br />

MORE THAN 500 people<br />

calling for safety improvements<br />

at a “dangerous” pedestrian<br />

crossing on Stanmore Rd could<br />

now lose it all together.<br />

The city council has<br />

recommended the crossing be<br />

removed after determining it is<br />

“not the correct type of facility”<br />

for the location.<br />

But city council transport<br />

operations manager Steffan<br />

Thomas said there are no firm<br />

proposals to remove the zebra<br />

crossing.<br />

It comes as more than<br />

500 signatures collected by<br />

Richmond resident Gillian<br />

Sheard was presented to the city<br />

council infrastructure, transport<br />

and environment committee on<br />

Wednesday.<br />

Ms Sheard was lobbying for<br />

the pedestrian crossing to either<br />

be raised or have traffic lights<br />

placed at the Stanmore Rd/<br />

Avalon St corner.<br />

She also wanted the speed<br />

on Stanmore Rd reduced from<br />

50km/h to 30km/h.<br />

However, a city council report<br />

said changes to the crossing<br />

do not rank highly against<br />

competing priorities for limited<br />

funds.<br />

It said council staff have<br />

investigated safety concerns<br />

and the volume of pedestrians<br />

observed is “well below the<br />

required warrant to install a new<br />

zebra crossing.”<br />

Staff surveyed people using<br />

the zebra crossing in August<br />

with the highest observed<br />

usage being 14 pedestrians per<br />

hour.<br />

The owner of Stanmore Rd’s<br />

The Sideline Sports Bar, Nikki<br />

Bradley, accused the city council<br />

of trying to find a cheap way to<br />

solve the problem.<br />

It is “absolutely ridiculous,” she<br />

said.<br />

“The first death will be on<br />

their hands . . . people are still<br />

going to have to cross that road<br />

and if there is not going to be a<br />

crossing at all there is going<br />

to be accidents galore,” she<br />

said.<br />

Miss Bradley said you don’t<br />

solve a problem by “wiping it<br />

out” and the recommendation<br />

makes her “quite angry.”<br />

She said near misses happen<br />

“basically every day.”<br />

But Richmond Residents<br />

and Business Association<br />

chairwoman Hayley Guglietta<br />

said the petition has had the<br />

opposite affect.<br />

She said it will annoy a lot of<br />

people including herself if the<br />

crossing is taken away because<br />

she lives close by and it will be<br />

an “inconvenience.”<br />

REMOVAL: The city council has recommended removing<br />

a pedestrian crossing on Stanmore Rd in spite of more<br />

than 500 people signing a petition for it to receive safety<br />

improvements.<br />

PHOTOS: MARTIN HUNTER<br />

Her view was backed by<br />

resident Jennifer Dalziel who<br />

said she is against them taking<br />

away the crossing.<br />

She said the petition has forced<br />

the city council to do something<br />

which has led to them getting<br />

rid of it.<br />

“(Ms Sheard) has forced them<br />

to do something and what they<br />

have decided to do is get rid of<br />

it,” Ms Dalziel said.<br />

Canterbury’s alternative<br />

option in its draft Long<br />

Term Plan to combine the<br />

135 Burwood Hospital and<br />

150 The Palms bus routes<br />

Kath Strong – We have<br />

lived at the QE II end of Beach<br />

Rd for more than 45 years and<br />

have always had a bus service at<br />

the gate. We attempted once to<br />

use the small red bus but found<br />

it quite dangerous to get on,<br />

and very scary getting off, due<br />

to the height of the step to the<br />

ground. The 1km walk to the<br />

other side of Bower Ave in order<br />

to get to a Christchurch Hospital<br />

bus proved to be exhausting,<br />

especially when you are<br />

recuperating from an operation.<br />

Ironically, the operation was<br />

done at Burwood Hospital. The<br />

post-operation appointments<br />

were at Christchurch Hospital.<br />

Now we park the car in New<br />

•From page 1<br />

“There are so many positive<br />

outcomes for the community and<br />

most of the submissions were<br />

positive,” Mr Burley said.<br />

Public consultation on leasing<br />

parts of the domain took place<br />

last month. Out of 62 submissions<br />

received, 55 were in support<br />

of the plan.<br />

Five submissions indicated<br />

general support for the proposal,<br />

but expressed concerns about the<br />

reduced availability of the tennis<br />

courts for wider public use.<br />

Mr Burley said he is not worried<br />

about the hearing, the issue<br />

is getting the funding together.<br />

The organisation has raised<br />

Brighton and catch the Yellow<br />

Line. I have tried to explain<br />

how we have been overlooked,<br />

especially since the No 60 bus<br />

was taken away and I am sure<br />

we are not on our own. There<br />

are several examples I could give<br />

you. We can no longer take the<br />

bus to New Brighton Club; can<br />

no longer take the bus to New<br />

Brighton Health Care; can no<br />

longer take the bus to The Palms.<br />

The list goes on. We are in our<br />

70s now. Never thought our<br />

public bus service would change<br />

like this.<br />

Pauline Morgan – I am in<br />

my mid -80s and walk with the<br />

aid of a walker. At the present<br />

time, I can catch a bus from<br />

Effingham St and will be in<br />

about half the funding it needs<br />

for the project, Mr Burley said.<br />

The current tennis courts at the<br />

domain were partially repaired<br />

after the earthquakes.<br />

Brighton in 6min. With the<br />

new proposed route, I am told<br />

I will have to catch the 60 bus<br />

to the corner of Rookwood and<br />

Bower Aves, get off the bus and<br />

walk to QE II, and catch the 80<br />

from there, which will no doubt<br />

take me 40-50min to get to New<br />

Brighton and the same back with<br />

shopping. Not a good service.<br />

Especially as there is a call for<br />

people to support the shops in<br />

New Brighton. It will also be<br />

difficult for young mums with<br />

prams and children.<br />

A reader responds to an<br />

article about the ongoing<br />

roadworks at North Avon<br />

Rd which continue to put<br />

pressure on Richmond<br />

businesses<br />

Mr Burley said the state of the<br />

courts was “not that bad”, but the<br />

organisation wants a better quality<br />

facility.<br />

He said the only “caveat” is<br />

Jane Ross – Thank you for<br />

your article about Richmond<br />

Village. Those businesses have<br />

tried hard to keep the village<br />

feel and it seems with no<br />

compensation for their business<br />

disruption. As the long-time<br />

butcher who closed last time<br />

said, they still had to pay their<br />

full rent with no customers. The<br />

city council has allowed the<br />

works to proceed at the least cost<br />

to it. The businesses definitely<br />

should have been compensated.<br />

The disruption has happened<br />

repeatedly and for too long each<br />

time. Protecting the livelihoods<br />

of people after the earthquake is<br />

just as important as repairing the<br />

infrastructure.<br />

Readers respond to an<br />

from cyclists for the<br />

New Zealand Transport<br />

Agency to change its<br />

decision not to include a<br />

separated cycleway along<br />

upgrade<br />

Bruce Burns – I am a<br />

regular road cyclist along Dyers<br />

Rd. To me, it is very safe. It has<br />

a cycle lane and plenty of room,<br />

not a problem.<br />

Gary Knight – The presence<br />

of the Christchurch Coastal<br />

project aimed at reducing<br />

negative carbon environmental<br />

footprints within our Garden<br />

City in a very positive vein.<br />

It is imperative therefore that<br />

this concept is promoted at every<br />

juncture. Cycleways, improved<br />

footpaths and pedestrian<br />

crossings, while commendable,<br />

are minimal and leave a void in<br />

the overall status of required<br />

cycleway upgrades along Dyers<br />

Rd.<br />

Traffic volume, inclusive of<br />

trailers with often insecure loads,<br />

is a factor that should have been<br />

considered with the sanctioning<br />

of the 2017 $3.2 million Dyers<br />

Rd widening. It should also<br />

have been inclusive of advanced,<br />

separate cycleways, a sentiment<br />

reiterated by city councillor Yani<br />

Johanson.<br />

Within this context,<br />

submissions made by cyclists to<br />

the Long Term Plan pertaining<br />

to this issue must be scrutinised<br />

and appraised.<br />

The original plans by NZTA<br />

opposing Dyers Rd cycle lanes<br />

should be redressed, reviewed<br />

and overturned.<br />

This is paramount for Dyers<br />

Rd to become an integral part<br />

of the New Brighton to Sumner<br />

cycle route along the Coastal<br />

Pathway.<br />

Future criteria for NZTA<br />

must surely include a<br />

fundamental requirement to<br />

have cycleways included in state<br />

highways.<br />

Richmond to get new<br />

housing complex<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-<br />

Harding<br />

CONSTRUCTION is<br />

under way for a new<br />

housing complex in<br />

Richmond.<br />

Housing New Zealand is<br />

building a 23-unit, three -<br />

level complex to help meet<br />

the one and two-bedroom<br />

state housing demand<br />

across the city.<br />

The development, to<br />

be located at Eveleyn<br />

Couzins Pl, will comprise<br />

of 23 one -bedroom<br />

units on the side of the<br />

site, which is due for<br />

completion next month.<br />

The other development<br />

includes 14 two-bedroom<br />

units across two storeys<br />

and will be completed in<br />

October.<br />

restaurants and<br />

an international<br />

A PLAN to market<br />

Stanmore Rd’s restaurants<br />

and takeaways as an<br />

international smorgasbord<br />

could be the solution to<br />

Richmond’s commercial<br />

woes.<br />

Resident Joanna Gould<br />

has formed an idea to promote<br />

Stanmore Rd’s food<br />

businesses under a new<br />

brand called Kai Town<br />

which she hopes will create<br />

an identity for the area.<br />

She is hoping it will<br />

address the number of<br />

untenanted commercial<br />

properties in the area. It<br />

comes as the road works at<br />

North Avon Rd continue<br />

to put pressure on Richmond<br />

businesses.<br />

Mrs Gould said the<br />

former Movieman Video<br />

Shop, the Uniform Centre<br />

and former Richmond<br />

Electrical shop were three<br />

obvious places where there<br />

could be restaurants.<br />

DEVELOPMENT: Housing New Zealand is<br />

developing a 23 unit, three- level complex to be<br />

located on Eveleyn Couzins Pl. ​<br />

area manager Fraser<br />

Benson said the new<br />

warm, dry homes will<br />

replace the six older homes<br />

previously located on the<br />

site.<br />

“We expect a mix of<br />

singles, couples and<br />

families will live in this<br />

complex,” he said.<br />

Stanmore Rd has a<br />

wide range of food outlets,<br />

including Chillax Cafe &<br />

Restaurant, Taj of India,<br />

North Avon Fish Fry<br />

and the Persian Kitchen.<br />

Mrs Gould is planning to<br />

discuss her ideas with the<br />

newly-formed Richmond<br />

Residents and Business<br />

Association to get business<br />

owners on board.<br />

She will also consider<br />

presenting her ideas to<br />

the Linwood-Central-<br />

Heathcote Community<br />

Board. The Kai Town idea<br />

was prompted by her interest<br />

in Richmond’s Maori<br />

and British heritage.<br />

She said it was about understanding<br />

the area’s history<br />

before learning about<br />

the different nationalities<br />

coming to live and work in<br />

the area.<br />

“There is more to Richmond<br />

Village than just the<br />

shops on Stanmore Rd; we<br />

need help to tell our story,”<br />

Mrs Gould said.<br />

She is also calling for a<br />

Idea to make Stanmore Rd<br />

an international smorgasbord<br />

Richmond Village website<br />

and a master plan similar<br />

to the Edgeware Village<br />

master plan.<br />

She suggested the plan<br />

could include street lighting<br />

with colourful flags of<br />

the different nationalities<br />

living in the community,<br />

an outdoor seating/picnic<br />

space and a “walkable<br />

centre”.<br />

City councillor Deon<br />

Swiggs said he loves the<br />

ideas and would welcome<br />

Mrs Gould to present<br />

them at the community<br />

board.<br />

“I am fully supportive<br />

. . . but it is going to be<br />

tricky because, economically,<br />

there are some challenges,”<br />

he said.<br />

Richmond Residents<br />

and Business Association<br />

chairwoman Hayley<br />

Guglietta said it is one of<br />

many good ideas coming<br />

from the community. The<br />

association is interested in<br />

establishing a heritage trail<br />

for the area.<br />

Senior Well-being<br />

SPECIAL SUPER GOLD CARD OFFER<br />

tEN yEars ago, the Physical sense<br />

Gym and Physio in sydenham, created<br />

a program to help stroke survivors.<br />

Their specialised exercise program was<br />

established to work in collaboration with<br />

the Burwood stroke rehabilitation team.<br />

Participants raved so much about the<br />

classes and the benefits they experienced<br />

from this exercise program that it has<br />

now grown from one weekly class to four<br />

weekly classes. New classes have also been<br />

added to be effective for those who have<br />

suffered from Osteoporosis, Intermittent<br />

Claudication, and Diabetes. On top of<br />

that they also run four weekly classes<br />

for seniors. These weekly rehabilitation<br />

and injury prevention classes can lead to<br />

continued gym membership at a reduced<br />

cost. Participants may also be eligible for<br />

a WINZ subsidy to pay for the continued<br />

gym membership with their super<br />

Gold card.<br />

Physical sense’s latest initiative is the<br />

“Centre for senior Wellbeing”. Here you<br />

sure that you (or your parents) can keep<br />

on living independently. It is a “walkin”<br />

information centre where the staff<br />

are happy to connect you to the services<br />

you need to; -prevent falling, -make<br />

adjustments to home and surroundings,<br />

they are absolutely marvelous, very<br />

patient, great sense of humour, very<br />

supportive”. Not only are you supported<br />

by the knowledgeable, well trained<br />

staff, but you will make new friends<br />

and enjoy participants with a positive,<br />

“can-do” attitude. These classmates are<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />

Supporting Your<br />

Bowel & Digestive<br />

Function Helps<br />

Prevent Disease<br />

It is most important to keep the whole<br />

digestive & elimination systems of the<br />

body working efficiently. Otherwise toxins<br />

that have not been eliminated set the stage<br />

for disease. Many diseases have been linked<br />

with micro-organisms (virus) or a bacterial<br />

component. Generally these microorganisms<br />

or bacteria can only survive<br />

due to the fact that the environment they<br />

are in is suitable for their survival. Non<br />

eliminated toxins are probably one of the<br />

main causative factors for their survival.<br />

We know that when the digestive system<br />

& bowel function are poor we have many<br />

more health problems. These include<br />

arthritis, digestive problems like reflux &<br />

stomach pain, bladder infections, chronic<br />

skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis &<br />

rashes, poor eyesight, pain & inflammation,<br />

tumors & a weakened immune system just<br />

to name a few.<br />

Nature’s Sunshine LBS II contains a<br />

highly effective blend of natural herbs to<br />

support the whole digestive system & it is<br />

especially effective at cleansing the lower<br />

bowel & intestinal tract. It is commonly<br />

used for arthritis, constipation, diarrhea,<br />

digestive problems, dry stool, fever, colds &<br />

influenza, flatulence, gallstones, gout, skin<br />

conditions like eczema & psoriasis, urinary<br />

infections, liver dysfunction, Candida,<br />

weakened immune function & for people<br />

who want to keep their health as good as<br />

possible.<br />

The herbs in LBS II help stimulate the<br />

production of digestive fluids & bile for<br />

efficient digestion. This alone may help<br />

prevent many diseases as a properly working<br />

digestive system will itself neutralise many<br />

disease causing organisms before they<br />

have a chance to cause any problems. LBS<br />

II also stimulates peristaltic action of the<br />

colon effectively cleansing the colon of any<br />

accumulated build-ups of waste material. It<br />

also relaxes abdominal cramping & spasms,<br />

enhances liver function, purifies the blood,<br />

neutralizes acidic conditions, helps destroy<br />

intestinal parasites & worms, & fights<br />

infection.<br />

Keeping your digestive system & bowels<br />

functioning efficiently is definitely &<br />

important step in obtaining & maintaining<br />

good long term health.<br />

1 in 2 people<br />

deficient in B12<br />

Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults<br />

& as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12.<br />

Scientists at Rush University Medical Center found those most<br />

deficient in vitamin B12 to have the smallest brain mass & the lowest<br />

scores on tests measuring short-term memory, concentration &<br />

brain performance. Another study showed that older people with<br />

higher levels of B12 in their blood have bigger, healthier brains &<br />

score higher on cognitive tests than those with lower levels. Yet<br />

another recent landmark study showed that B12 supplementation<br />

slows the accelerated rate of brain shrinkage & declining cognitive<br />

function. B12 is essential for energy production, cell health,<br />

regulation of mood & sleep cycles, nerve health & repair, &<br />

prevention of homocysteine a serious cardiovascular risk factor<br />

that is known to cause damage & plaque in the blood vessels. It can<br />

also increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard researchers found a<br />

34% decrease risk of vision loss in a study of participants aged 40+<br />

who supplemented with B12. Another study linked a higher risk<br />

of hearing loss in subjects in their 60’s who were low in B12.<br />

The reason so many people lack B12 appears to be our body’s<br />

ability to absorb it declining with age as the digestive system<br />

becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux medication & other drugs<br />

further reduce B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in<br />

the form of Methylcobalamin<br />

sublingual tablets that are<br />

dissolved in the<br />

mouth & thru<br />

bypassing the<br />

digestive tract have<br />

been shown to<br />

effectively raise B12<br />

levels in the body.<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />

Fresh air<br />

in your home<br />

Get the right<br />

choice for winter<br />

All houses require air exchange in order<br />

to stay fresh and dry. No one likes to live<br />

in a stuffy, smelly, damp home. Indoor air<br />

quality is important for the health of the<br />

occupants. Houses can have many sources of<br />

contaminants, such as bathrooms, kitchens,<br />

pets, smokers, and even furnishings. Opening<br />

the windows can refresh the air, but is not<br />

always an option for security reasons and can<br />

also lead to heat energy being lost to outside.<br />

Although older houses have small gaps<br />

around windows and doors, you want to be<br />

able to control the flow of air. You don’t want<br />

air coming in to the bathroom or kitchen and<br />

pushing the soiled air around the house. It<br />

is better to expel the air out of kitchens and<br />

bathrooms to outside. This will draw air in<br />

from the rest of the house to replace the air that<br />

has been removed.<br />

Modern houses are very airtight and<br />

theoretically require a source of incoming air<br />

to allow kitchen and bathroom extraction to<br />

work optimally. Ventilation systems should be<br />

low air velocity and low air pressure so as not<br />

to cause draughts.<br />

There are two main types of ventilation<br />

system: Positive pressure and Balanced<br />

pressure. Positive pressure systems, such as the<br />

Dry-Matic, bring filtered, warmed attic air into<br />

the house, which then percolates through the<br />

rooms, pushing the damper stale air out.<br />

Balanced pressure systems bring in a<br />

similar amount of air to the amount they<br />

exhaust. Balanced pressure systems with Heat<br />

Exchange, such as the HEX390, use the heat<br />

of the outgoing air to warm the incoming<br />

air from outside. These are the most energy<br />

efficient systems available, as they recover up<br />

to 80% of the energy in the air, rather than<br />

losing it to outside. Heat exchangers work just<br />

as well cooling incoming air when the house is<br />

cooled in summer.<br />

The NZ building code has recommended<br />

air exchange rates for houses. To ascertain<br />

the required airflow for your home, please<br />

contact Smooth-Air on 0800 SMOOTH<br />

(0800 766 684), who will also be able to<br />

recommend a solution if your ventilation<br />

doesn’t yet meet the New Zealand standard.<br />

Every year around about<br />

now people start to plan<br />

ahead for their winter<br />

heating needs. High on<br />

most people’s ‘must have’<br />

list is a Heat Pump. They<br />

have naturally become<br />

extremely popular because<br />

of their cheap heat and<br />

“touch of a button”<br />

convenience.<br />

Heat pumps are<br />

however a significant,<br />

long term investment, so<br />

it’s important to make the<br />

right choice.<br />

New Zealand properties tend to be of<br />

unique design and have many features that<br />

greatly affect their heating requirements.<br />

Factors such as location, orientation to<br />

the sun, room volume, heat loss surface<br />

area, and room air flow characteristics, etc.<br />

all play a major role. This means that the<br />

heat pump that is right for your friend or<br />

neighbour is not necessarily right for you.<br />

Add to that the fact that all manufacturers<br />

claim to have the best, quietest, most energy<br />

efficient, and have a multitude of constantly<br />

updating models; finding out which heat<br />

pump is best is not so straightforward.<br />

Getting the right heat pump for your<br />

home is a combination of accurate<br />

calculation of the space to be heated, taking<br />

into account all property characteristic,<br />

plus an up to date knowledge of the<br />

performance specifications of all makes<br />

and models available.<br />

This is where the local company Heat<br />

Pump Guys can help. They are fully<br />

independent heat pump specialists, and are<br />

accredited agents for all top brands. They<br />

offer an obligation-free home survey and<br />

completely unbiased advice on which heat<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />

Choosing the right heat<br />

pump for your home<br />

Whether it be a new build, or a retrofit,<br />

most homes include at least one heat pump,<br />

if not a whole heating solution. They can<br />

provide cheap, clean heat and are much<br />

more convenient than a log burner as you<br />

just need to press a button. But how do you<br />

decide what is best? Choosing the right<br />

sized heat pump is key to ensuring optimum<br />

comfort levels. Every situation varies and<br />

it is therefore important to get professional<br />

advice from heat pump experts.<br />

The range varies from wall mounted high<br />

walls, floor mounted systems, multi systems,<br />

ceiling cassettes, right through to ducted<br />

central heating systems allowing you to have<br />

a very discreet way of heating your whole<br />

home to a constant temperature<br />

throughout.<br />

Firstly, you must select a heat<br />

pump that is suitable for the size<br />

of the space you wish to heat.<br />

Usually a site visit is the best<br />

way to ascertain this. Not only<br />

is the size of the area taken into<br />

consideration but also, insulation,<br />

building orientation, windows<br />

and ceiling space. There are a wide<br />

range of heat pumps available<br />

with different heating outputs<br />

so it is important to select the<br />

correct size for your requirements<br />

that will handle the job but not be<br />

unnecessarily overpowered.<br />

Secondly, the location of your heat<br />

pump is also extremely important. The<br />

cheapest installation is a back to back where<br />

the outdoor unit is positioned directly<br />

behind the indoor unit however this is<br />

not necessarily always the best option. It is<br />

vital that the indoor unit is positioned in a<br />

place that will not be constantly blowing on<br />

you. Also important, is the location of the<br />

outdoor unit. Most people do not want their<br />

outdoor unit sitting directly in their outdoor<br />

entertaining area or right outside their<br />

bedroom window.<br />

Choose a brand you can trust. Many<br />

brands have come and gone over the years<br />

but there are a number of manufacturers<br />

who provide reputable and reliable products.<br />

All brands vary in their energy efficiency,<br />

quietness of systems and price, so it depends<br />

on your application as to which will be most<br />

suitable. Major brands such as Panasonic,<br />

Fujitsu, Mitsubishi, Daikin, Toshiba and<br />

Hitachi are all reliable brands backed up by<br />

good technical after sales service.<br />

Ensure your heat pump is installed by an<br />

accredited installer. This will not only ensure<br />

correct installation of your heat pump, but<br />

also validate the manufacturers warranty.<br />

Other things to consider when choosing<br />

a heat pump are time clocks, ease of use of<br />

the remote controllers, air filtration and also<br />

wifi capabilities.<br />

Heating is a major investment<br />

in your home and it is vital to get<br />

the right advice.<br />

Enviro Master Ltd specialise<br />

in the supply, installation and<br />

servicing of all major brands<br />

of heat pumps. Our salesmen<br />

complete package! The dual entrance,<br />

559 sq m property slopes away from the<br />

street frontage, so a drive-by won’t do here<br />

- when we said privacy, we meant it! The<br />

home has been meticulously maintained<br />

and updated, retaining all the desirable<br />

architectural features of its era and adding<br />

modern style and convenience.<br />

Sunny, open plan living and dining areas<br />

both open through French doors to a deck<br />

with views toward the city and beyond. A<br />

gas fire and heat pump ensure year round<br />

comfort. A gorgeous modern kitchen<br />

adjoins the dining area with tons of bench<br />

and storage space and quality stainless<br />

steel appliances. On this level there are<br />

two double bedrooms and a single as<br />

well as one of two bathrooms, a laundry<br />

and guest toilet. Upstairs is a huge area<br />

currently furnished as the master suite but<br />

easily able to be a very large games room.<br />

Adjoining this space is a very generous<br />

bathroom with spa bath, separate shower<br />

and double vanity. Magnificent views from<br />

this area will provide wow factor day and<br />

night 24/7.<br />

There is a single garage at the top of the<br />

property and a double garage at the bottom<br />

so plenty of storage space for cars and toys.<br />

With attractive garden areas both front<br />

and back this family home oozes charm<br />

from every angle.<br />

T<br />

he firs time I woke up with a cold nose in my brand<br />

new home, I wa shocked. How could this be? The<br />

cool, calm, collected one and I had planned for our<br />

home to be well insulated against Canterbury’s<br />

cold winters. Turns out, not well enough. We’d<br />

even a sured a we l-meaning friend we had ample<br />

insulation (yes, Duncan, you were right). I’ve worked out where we<br />

fe l short in hindsight. Our home was designed by highly respected<br />

Christchurch architec the late Peter Beaven, for a magic little<br />

Port Hill site, where he planned to live in with his wife Lesley.<br />

Sadly Peter died before realising his plans. We bough them and<br />

employed Archology in Sydney, where we were living a the time, to<br />

prepare the construction drawings and specifications. Compared to<br />

Australia, the R values for insulation would have looked high. Our<br />

talented young builder, Sam McCarthy, would never have queried<br />

the levels because they were standard practice around town. So it<br />

wasn’t until we were living in the house and I consulted Council’s<br />

eco design advisor Julie Vi lard about how we could warm it up that<br />

we discovered, while we unwittingly thought we had exceeded New<br />

Zealand standard, we had merely met Code. And that ain’t going to<br />

cut it in our climate.<br />

Fortunately Julie had plenty of ideas on how we could improve<br />

the situation and we have easy acce s to our underfloor to top-up<br />

the insulation. Julie Villard, an architect from France, is on a mi sion<br />

to transform building best practice here and you can read abou the<br />

groundbreaking idea she’s applied to her own brand new build on<br />

page 20.<br />

I’ve shared the highs and lows of building with the other home<br />

builders and renovators I interviewed and, like Diane (page 36), would<br />

relish doing it again. I wa struck by how all the home owner said<br />

wha they most valued was the ability of their designer or builder to<br />

“really listen” to their wants and needs. I was also impre sed by how<br />

much Christchurch people love a good garage! We’ve got some ideas<br />

for some top of their cla s cars to complement yours on page 81 and<br />

how to quickly establish a lawn on page 72.<br />

We review a l the lates trends in everyone’s favourite room –<br />

the kitchen (page 48), and share an easy yet impressive recipe for<br />

entertaining friends in your fabulous new home on page 77.<br />

I hope Peter Beaven would be pleased with how the cool, calm,<br />

co lected one and I realised his dream. Go chase yours people!<br />

Building tips from the home owners plus expert home design advice<br />

complimentary<br />

Speaking to the NZ Institute of Architects about ‘bespoke<br />

architecture’ being a ‘minority pursuit’ not long before his death<br />

Peter said “I am going to try to prove that it’s possible to build<br />

modestly and cheaply with a little house for ourselves. It’s going to<br />

be sustainable and it’s going to be beautiful and it’s going to be just<br />

cheap – no more than an ordinary spec house. I’ l prove that it can<br />

be done, and it might be the las thing I prove.”<br />
