AFTER 20 years of caring for
some of Christchurch’s most
vulnerable flying residents,
Jackie Stevenson is ready to
spread her own wings.

The 72-year-old from
Parklands says she’s on the
lookout for someone who shares
her love for birds to take her
place nursing them back to
health.
Mrs Stevenson gave up her
job as a nurse when she realised
birds were her true passion.
Since then, her home has been
transformed into a bird rescue
centre.
However, Mrs Stevenson
said the long days and sleepless

Hawke St
car park
potholes
start to
disappear
• By Matt Slaughter
THE POTHOLES in New
Brighton’s badly-damaged Hawke
St car park are finally starting to
disappear.
Work started last Monday
to repair the car parking area
outside Coupland’s bakery.
The cost of the work will be
split between Coupland’s and the
private owner of the site.
Coupland’s general manager for
retail operations Derek Cotton
said its decision to partially
fund the repairs was to ensure
customer satisfaction and safety.
“It’s not a great car park down
there and what we wanted to do
was try and do the right thing
and unfortunately if the landlord
can’t meet the obligations, then
we still put the customers first,”
he said.
“What it will do for our
customers is give them the
security of being able to park
without risk of injury or getting
their feet wet when it rains, which
is going to make their shopping
experience a lot more pleasant.”

GOOD ON Coupland’s for taking a
lead over the ongoing problem of repairing
potholes in the Hawke St car park
(see page 1).
The car park has been a problem for
years, so finally it is great to see something
happening. There are about 10-12 businesses and their
landlords who are responsible for maintaining various parts of
the car park.
So good on Coupland’s and the landlord who is sharing the
cost of the repairs. Says Derek Cotton from Coupland’s: “What
it will do for our customers is give them the security of being
able to park without risk of injury or getting their feet wet when
it rains, which is going to make their shopping experience a lot
more pleasant.” Can’t argue with that.

Tenders sought to fix clock tower
But New Brighton business owner says
delays have been too costly
• By Matt Slaughter
TENDERS ARE being called
for to repair the earthquakedamaged
New Brighton Clock
Tower.
The city council wants to
appoint one contractor to
undertake repairs on the New
Brighton and Scarborough clock
towers.
However, a New Brighton
business owner says this is
bitter-sweet considering how
long scaffolding has been in place
around the tower.
The scaffolding is costing
ratepayers $1500 a month and has
been up since March.
“I do have to ask the reasoning
behind why you would pay
money for no reason?” said Paper
Plus New Brighton owner Blair
Hughes.
However, a city council
spokesperson told Pegasus Post
in December “the scaffold was
required to enable the engineers
and project team to fully assess
the damage.”
But Mr Hughes said the repair
of the clock tower and other
projects in the east had simply
taken too long to complete.
“We know what we have to do,
we just need to get on with it.”
“I would have to say the
strength of the community is
amazing considering how hard
they’ve had to fight for just their
basic rights.”
City council head of parks
Andrew Rutledge was confident
its repair strategy would save
ratepayers by having one
contractor handle both the
New Brighton and Scarborough
towers.
“We believe the cost for
keeping the scaffold up is minor,
considering the cost efficiencies
in packaging both projects
together. The tenderers also
require the scaffold to be up to
fully inspect the structure and
damage so that they can price
their tender.”
Repairs were due to be made
to the New Brighton tower
in September, but following
investigations, including the
removal of paint from the
structure, the extent of the
damage became more apparent.
Repair work has not started on
either tower.
Once a contractor has been
secured, the repairs are expected
to take six months to complete.

Fire rages, homes at risk
FALLEN: Several trees came down or were damaged along the South Brighton Domain estuary
edge as a result of the high wind on January 23.
Concerns grow over estuary trees
• By Matt Slaughter
SAFETY CONCERNS have
increased after several trees
were left straddling walking
paths along the South Brighton
Domain estuary edge following
recent strong wind.
Residents say they are worried
about the stability of the trees
which were left standing after the
wind.
Coastal-Burwood Community
Board chairman Tim Sintes said
concerns have been raised with
city council in the past about how
these trees would fare in an event
like the one experienced two
weeks ago.
City council staff had visited
the estuary edge and reassured
people if the trees fell, they
would fall away from the
nearby walking track and South
Brighton Holiday Park.
However, Mr Sintes
said this was the opposite
of what happened.
“Our strong winds
are from the south and
it’s been proven over
and over again that a
lot of them tend to fall
backwards, back over
towards the track.”
Mr Sintes said he went
down to view the damage after
the wind and most of the fallen
trees were rotted through.
He said there was a good
chance those still standing would
be rotten too.
Tim Sintes
“Some of them that came down
from the outside looked like they
were an okay tree, but when they
come down you realise there’s
nothing inside them, just
dust.”
Mr Sintes said this was
because of water from the
estuary flooding its banks
and getting into tree roots.
“As we’ve lost the
protection of the estuary
edge and the reno
mattresses that were once
there, the wave action is
getting into the sandy banks and
undermining the tree roots.”
The damage to these protective
barriers happened during the
earthquakes.
Mr Sintes said they had not yet
been repaired or replaced by the
city council.
City council head of parks
Andrew Rutledge said it was
currently
looking into
options to
protect the
estuary edge.
But the damaged
barriers around
the estuary were
not unsafe, he
said.
“An
assessment of
Andrew
Rutledge
the site is taking place with the
aim of developing options for
coastal edge management.”
“The structures were
compromised during the
earthquakes. However, they do
not present any safety risk to the
public”.
South Brighton Holiday Park
owner Sam Hawkins said there
was potential for more damage.
“One tree that fell would have
been at least 8m tall or more and
it went right across a pathway.”
Mr Hawkins believes out of
the trees still standing along the
estuary, there are 50 or 60 with
the potential to fall in a storm.
Mr Rutledge said six trees
were cut down last Tuesday due
to this risk. Mr Hawkins said
if dangerous trees close to the
holiday park were not removed,
this would cause him to not feel
“safe to send guests or tourists
through that area.”

Work gets
under way
to repair
car park
•From page 1
The car parking area was
badly-damaged in the 2010 and
2011 earthquakes.
Coastal Ward city councillor
David East said between
10 and 12 private owners
are responsible for the
maintenance of different parts
of the car park.
Cr East said very little
work has been done to fix the
damage and complaints about
it had been “going on for years.”
He said injuries at the site
were common.
“There’s been the odd person
that has tripped in the potholes
and elderly people have even
probably had breaks of some
sort.”
New Brighton Business and
Landowners Association’s Paul
Lonsdale said pressure had
been put on the landlords who
owned different parts of the car
park to repair their sites over
summer.
Mr Cotton said repairs to
Coupland’s car park would
be finished in the next two to
three weeks.
•From page 1
“I’m getting older and each
year’s getting harder. It’s quite
physical work,” Mrs Stevenson
said.
She said for all of the birds she
had managed to save, many died
in her care and it had made her
job even harder.
Her husband supported the
decision to seek someone to take
over her role.
“He hates coming home and
seeing me so tired, so I’ve got to
think of him too.” Mrs Stevenson
estimates she cared for about 200
birds last year. All of her work
has been voluntary, with some
financial support coming from
donations.
Mrs Stevenson received $100
in petrol vouchers a year from
the Department of Conservation,
and dog and cat biscuits to mash
up and feed to the birds from the
SPCA and Dogwatch.
She said cats were the main
cause of injuries to birds. But
recently the number of injuries
caused by vehicles had increased.
The number of native wood
pigeons brought to her with
injuries was also increasing. The
birds commonly received injuries
from flying into car windows.
She also cares for a lot of native
fantails.
Mrs Stevenson said there are a
few simple things people can do
to make her job easier.
“One of the main things is
not picking birds up that don’t

about “knowing their needs and
knowing when to intervene.”

Helping people
Sorting out transport
get into politics
• Matt Slaughter
CHRISTCHURCH East MP Poto
Williams has started hosting
meetings for people who are
interested in the ways they can
make their political mark.
Four people attended the first
meeting, which was held at her
home on Sunday.
Discussion took place on
what was involved in running,
supporting and funding a
campaign.
The meeting “certainly
sent a couple of people away
thinking about things,” Ms
Williams said.
The meetings cater to
those who want to know
how to get involved in policy
discussion, what’s involved
in being a candidate, or those
just interested in meeting likeminded
people. She said with
local body elections in October,
now was the perfect time to start
educating people.
“It’s really about just talking
to people who might want to
get involved in politics from the
view that they might want to be a
candidate.”
Poto
Williams
“It’s also for people who
might want to get involved in
supporting a candidate or helping
run a campaign.”
Ms Willams said after a
successful first meeting, she
wanted them to take place once
a month and venues would
be organised once she knew
how many more people were
interested. She said meetings
like these would have helped
her when she first got into
politics.
“I know as an elected
representative I didn’t know
a lot about what would be
involved in standing before I
asked somebody.”
She said the support and
advice she had since received
throughout her political career
had been one of the main reasons
she had been able to get to where
she is today.
“My local Labour electorate
committee have been very, very
supportive from the moment I
started.”
Ms Williams said she “can not
say enough for what happens
locally” when these sorts of
support networks are in place.
Environment Canterbury
senior manager public
transport Stewart
Gibbon responds
to the article
last week about
the ongoing
battle Diana
Isaac Retirement
Village residents
are having over the axing of
the bus service
Environment Canterbury
introduced the idea of a
Community Vehicle Trust for
Diana Isaac Retirement Village
in November and has had two
conversations with Graham
Tate and other residents on the
matter, including the January
meeting.
Throughout Canterbury, where
traditional scheduled public
transport is unavailable, the
Community Vehicle Trust model
has proven to be highly successful
in delivering accessible,
flexible and affordable transport
options to defined geographical
communities. We are focused on
identifying a solution that is sustainable
and will meet the longer
term needs of the residents. The
transport needs of the residents,
and the flexible, close proximity
and community nature of the
OPTION: ECan is investigating a service to transport retirement
village residents now that the Orbiter bus no longer stops
outside the village.
Community Vehicle Trust model
appears to align well with the
current and future transport
needs of the residents.
We are still exploring the
viability of the option with the
residents and Ryman Healthcare.
However, discussions to date
have been positive and focused
on running a trial period of up
to six months, to validate the
feasibility of the idea in this
specific urban context. ECan
would provide support to the retirement
village in setting up its
Community Vehicle Trust, then
all operational matters moving
forward would be managed by
the trust, such as determining
vehicle size and type, destinations
and trip times.
Community Vehicle Trusts
receive annual grant funding
from ECan and the New Zealand
Transport Agency, and obtain
grant funding from other
sources. They also receive funds
from customer usage of the
service to cover the cost of the
journeys taken. These funding
sources combined enable the
trust to procure and manage
their vehicles and associated
administrative functions.

Young players
strongly supported
at local rugby club
Junior players at the New Brighton
Rugby Club will be eagerly awaiting
the start of the 2019 season, which
kicks off in early April.
The club has 250 junior players,
aged from as young as four up to
13, and seeing them take to the field
in their black and gold jerseys on a
Saturday morning makes the club’s
committee members, the coaches
and the parents feel very proud, says
Junior Club captain, Cara Stewart.
Cara’s husband Dougie is also a
Junior Club captain at New Brighton,
and both their sons play for the club.
“Belonging to the club is a great
opportunity for young people to get
involved and be part of something –
everyone enjoys that,” Cara says.
The club is very supportive of the
young players and encourages them,
whatever their skill level, she says.
The 11-13 year-olds have two
practice nights a week, and the 8-10
year-olds practise once a week, playing
at the club’s two grounds – Thompson
Park and Rawhiti Domain.
Inter-club rugby is played on
Saturday mornings, with matches
taking place at club grounds right
around the city.
“It can be a very busy time for
parents, especially if they have two or
three youngsters playing at different
venues,” Cara says.
A team night for the junior players is
held once a season, a family occasion
at which the young club members
are introduced to the senior New
Brighton players, who are all very
supportive of their young club-mates.
New Brighton was also fortunate
to have All Black Ryan Crotty, who
played his junior rugby at New
Brighton and retains close ties with
the club, and Crusader Ollie Jager
attend their Junior Club Day last
season, with the pair presenting
Player of the Day medals and signing
banners for the young players.
Jager, who represents both
Canterbury and the Crusaders, has
played for the club’s Premier Colts
and Senior Division One team in
recent seasons, while Canterbury and
Crusaders player Billy Harmon was
another New Brighton Club member.
“We’re very proud of the New
Brighton Club, but it wouldn’t be the
success it is without the support of the
coaches, the committee and of course,
the parents,” Cara says.

Brighton Rugby Club, contact Cara

Photography exhibition
showcases the
‘many faces’ of Linwood
ALASDAIR WRIGHT is
combining his 55-year love affair
with cameras and photography
with his love for the area he
lives in.
The Linwood
resident is one of 12
photographers with
work on display at an
exhibition focusing on
the community and its
diversity.
The Many Faces of the
Inner City East/Linwood
exhibition was set to
open yesterday at the
Linwood Community
Arts Centre and Eastside Gallery.
Wright, 59, said he has been
living in Linwood for seven years
and has seen it go through huge
changes since the earthquakes.
He said the aim of his
photographs is to document
what Linwood was like before the
changes occurred and the past is
forgotten.
“It’s important to record things
because when you think I’ll
take that photo now and don’t
have a camera and go back a few
days or years later, the case may
Alasdair Wright
be that they’re gone.” Wright
said Linwood’s population
and landscape has changed.
He said showcasing this in the
photographs was key.
“It’s important to see the
changing face of Linwood because
we’ve got a wide gamut of
society around here.”
“You can travel the
world without even
having to leave home.”
Linwood Community
Arts Centre and Eastside
Gallery exhibition coordinator
Shirley Scarlett
said the display was
about Linwood residents
like Wright “defining
the neighbourhood on their own
terms.”
Ms Scarlett said the exhibition
was also about breaking down the
stereotypes that could sometimes
have a negative effect on how
others viewed Linwood.
“The exhibition focuses on
celebrating and delving deeper
into a community that doesn’t
always get the best coverage.”
It was about “capturing the
good and the beautiful alongside
the challenges and concerns” of
the community, she said

THE SEASIDE Toy Library
hopes an open day will make it
a haven for toy lovers and their
families.
The library, which operates
out of St Luke’s Church in South
New Brighton, will host the
event on March 9 from 9.30amnoon.
It aims to promote the library
to people in the area and attract
new members.
Seaside Toy Library chairman
Andy Dimond said it was one
of many businesses in the east
that had a hard time after the
earthquakes.
“The library did struggle
financially and struggled with
attracting membership and
volunteers.”
Since then, Mr Dimond said
the toy library had employed a
part-time librarian and this had
helped it gain some stability.
However, he said word needed
to get out if the library should be
used to its full potential.
“There are a lot of young
families in the area who don’t
know about the toy library,
how much it costs and when
we operate, so this is a good
opportunity to promote
the library and also build
relationships in the local area,”
he said.

Centuries old folk remedy supports
good health!
A fermented liquid health
tonic offers an array of
powerful health benefits. It is
none other than the popular
apple cider vinegar or ACV.
Since the time of Hippocrates – the “Father
of Medicine” – ACV has been renowned for its
curative properties.
In his popular book “ARTHRITIS & FOLK
MEDICINE”, DR. D.C. Jarvis reports how he
found that Vermonters who regularly consumed
ACV and Honey had excellent health with
many putting in a vigorous day’s work on the
farm even when well into their eighties. He also
noted the effects of ACV and H on arthritis to be
remarkable with many patients reporting almost
total relief after taking a course of the
mixture. Dr. Jarvis surmised that
the acid and potassium in cider
vinegar counteracted calcium
deposits and helped the body
control calcium use. He also noted
that Vermonters who consumed
ACV and H around meal time
had excellent blood pressure and
circulation. The reason he found
was that protein foods thickened
the blood and vinegar thinned it.
As the blood thickens it cannot
pass as easily and quickly through
the blood vessels and capillaries. This
poor blood flow would reduce cellular
health by limiting nutrients to the cells
as well as waste elimination from the cells.
To prevent cell damage the body naturally
increases blood pressure but this puts more stress
on the blood vessels, organs and heart. Having
ACV and H with meals will help prevent protein
raising the blood pressure. It also contributes
to a feeling of greater well-being because the
thinner blood circulates quickly and more easily
through the blood vessels. Dr. Jarvis found regular
consumption of CV and H to be an excellent
health tonic with numerous Health attributes.
ACV is highly nutritious as it contains all the
goodness of the apple in a form that is readily
accepted by the bodyGood health starts with good
digestion and assimilation of nutrients. ACV taken
before food will stimulate and promote healthy
digestion and assimilation of vital nutrients for
good health. A well-functioning digestive system
helps prevent disease by neutralising any toxic
substances that enter the body.
It is important to note not all ACV is produced
in the traditional way and results are likely to
prove disappointing with these other vinegars.
Marshall’s Premium ACV & ACV with 20%
Manuka Honey is produced in Canterbury from
Organic whole apples in the traditional way. It is
double strength so you can use less.

Device to prevent
snoring
Why put up with broken sleep, when
help is at hand with Snorex, an appliance
that prevents snoring, sleep apnoea, and
dry and raw throats.
Snorex is custom-fitted to your mouth
for comfort, and a follow up service is
provided.
Denise Lim has been involved with
Snores for 22 years and has had a 98%
success rate with
people using the
appliance. Snoring
can be a health
hazard, causing
sleep apnoea, where
the person actually
stops breathing for
short periods.
It can cause
short-term memory
loss, tiredness and
contribute to high
blood pressure.
The Snorex
device does not feel
restrictive, is noninvasive
and carries
a money-back
guarantee.
Many people are referred by ear, nose
and throat specialists, however, anyone can
phone for an appointment.
For an information pack or to discuss
the Snorex further, phone Denise Lim on
377 4318 or check out the website
www.snorex.co.nz

Collagen
The Body’s Youth Protein
Collagen is the primary protein in the
body. It is a major component of skin,
hair, nails, muscles, tendons, ligaments,
joint cartilage, bones, gums, teeth, eyes,
and blood vessels.
In fact collagen is the primary
structural component for all tissue
in the body, providing the strength
and resilience associated with youth,
beauty and wellness. The body’s natural
collagen production decreases with
age resulting in many signs of aging,
such as flaccid skin, wrinkles, ligament
and tendon injuries and aching joints.
Collagen supplementation is one of
the most fundamental things a person
can do to prevent premature aging and
promote youthful vitality.
NEOCELL are the industry leaders
in research on collagen supplementation.
Through advanced research they have
perfected a way to hydrolyse collagen and
effectively reduce its molecular weight this
improving the absorption of collagen into
the blood stream by over 90%.
A clinical study on NEOCELL
COLLAGEN has shown skin hydration to
increase an average of 21% and up to 50%,
with 92% of test subjects experiencing
firmer, softer skin. Most people taking
NEOCELL COLLAGEN reported seeing
visible improvements within two weeks.
Collagen supplementation provides
the nutrients necessary to support the
body’s collagen supply. It can help reduce
fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin
elasticity, support building of strong bones
and teeth, strengthen the nails and hair,
and is vital for muscle growth, It also
assists weight loss by helping burn fat
for energy, promotes wound healing by
supporting the regeneration of healthy
tissue as well as help support overall
health.
NEOCELL COLLAGEN and further
information is available from the
Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s
Health & Natural Therapy, 101 Seaview
Road, New Brighton, Phone: 388-5757.
