AFTER 20 years of caring for<br />

vulnerable flying residents,<br />

Jackie Stevenson is ready to<br />

spread her own wings.<br />

The 72-year-old from<br />

Parklands says she’s on the<br />

lookout for someone who shares<br />

her love for birds to take her<br />

place nursing them back to<br />

health.<br />

Mrs Stevenson gave up her<br />

job as a nurse when she realised<br />

birds were her true passion.<br />

Since then, her home has been<br />

transformed into a bird rescue<br />

centre.<br />

However, Mrs Stevenson<br />

Hawke St<br />

car park<br />

potholes<br />

start to<br />

disappear<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

THE POTHOLES in New<br />

Brighton’s badly-damaged Hawke<br />

St car park are finally starting to<br />

disappear.<br />

Work started last Monday<br />

to repair the car parking area<br />

outside Coupland’s bakery.<br />

The cost of the work will be<br />

split between Coupland’s and the<br />

private owner of the site.<br />

Coupland’s general manager for<br />

retail operations Derek Cotton<br />

said its decision to partially<br />

fund the repairs was to ensure<br />

customer satisfaction and safety.<br />

“It’s not a great car park down<br />

there and what we wanted to do<br />

was try and do the right thing<br />

and unfortunately if the landlord<br />

can’t meet the obligations, then<br />

we still put the customers first,”<br />

he said.<br />

“What it will do for our<br />

customers is give them the<br />

security of being able to park<br />

without risk of injury or getting<br />

their feet wet when it rains, which<br />

is going to make their shopping<br />

experience a lot more pleasant.”<br />

from the editor’s desk<br />

GOOD ON Coupland’s for taking a<br />

lead over the ongoing problem of repairing<br />

potholes in the Hawke St car park<br />

(see page 1).<br />

The car park has been a problem for<br />

years, so finally it is great to see something<br />

happening. There are about 10-12 businesses and their<br />

landlords who are responsible for maintaining various parts of<br />

the car park.<br />

So good on Coupland’s and the landlord who is sharing the<br />

cost of the repairs. Says Derek Cotton from Coupland’s: “What<br />

it will do for our customers is give them the security of being<br />

able to park without risk of injury or getting their feet wet when<br />

it rains, which is going to make their shopping experience a lot<br />

more pleasant.” Can’t argue with that.<br />

Tenders sought to fix clock tower<br />

But New Brighton business owner says<br />

delays have been too costly<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

TENDERS ARE being called<br />

for to repair the earthquakedamaged<br />

New Brighton Clock<br />

Tower.<br />

The city council wants to<br />

appoint one contractor to<br />

undertake repairs on the New<br />

Brighton and Scarborough clock<br />

towers.<br />

However, a New Brighton<br />

business owner says this is<br />

bitter-sweet considering how<br />

long scaffolding has been in place<br />

around the tower. ​<br />

The scaffolding is costing<br />

ratepayers $1500 a month and has<br />

been up since March.<br />

“I do have to ask the reasoning<br />

behind why you would pay<br />

money for no reason?” said Paper<br />

Plus New Brighton owner Blair<br />

Hughes.<br />

However, a city council<br />

spokesperson told <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong><br />

in December “the scaffold was<br />

required to enable the engineers<br />

and project team to fully assess<br />

the damage.”<br />

But Mr Hughes said the repair<br />

of the clock tower and other<br />

projects in the east had simply<br />

taken too long to complete.<br />

“We know what we have to do,<br />

we just need to get on with it.”<br />

“I would have to say the<br />

strength of the community is<br />

amazing considering how hard<br />

they’ve had to fight for just their<br />

basic rights.”<br />

City council head of parks<br />

Andrew Rutledge was confident<br />

its repair strategy would save<br />

ratepayers by having one<br />

contractor handle both the<br />

New Brighton and Scarborough<br />

towers.<br />

“We believe the cost for<br />

keeping the scaffold up is minor,<br />

considering the cost efficiencies<br />

in packaging both projects<br />

together. The tenderers also<br />

require the scaffold to be up to<br />

fully inspect the structure and<br />

damage so that they can price<br />

their tender.”<br />

Repairs were due to be made<br />

to the New Brighton tower<br />

in September, but following<br />

investigations, including the<br />

removal of paint from the<br />

structure, the extent of the<br />

damage became more apparent.<br />

Repair work has not started on<br />

either tower.<br />

Once a contractor has been<br />

secured, the repairs are expected<br />

to take six months to complete.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

FALLEN: Several trees came down or were damaged along the South Brighton Domain estuary<br />

edge as a result of the high wind on January 23.<br />

Concerns grow over estuary trees<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

SAFETY CONCERNS have<br />

increased after several trees<br />

were left straddling walking<br />

paths along the South Brighton<br />

Domain estuary edge following<br />

recent strong wind.<br />

Residents say they are worried<br />

about the stability of the trees<br />

which were left standing after the<br />

wind.<br />

Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board chairman Tim Sintes said<br />

concerns have been raised with<br />

city council in the past about how<br />

these trees would fare in an event<br />

like the one experienced two<br />

weeks ago.<br />

City council staff had visited<br />

the estuary edge and reassured<br />

people if the trees fell, they<br />

would fall away from the<br />

nearby walking track and South<br />

Brighton Holiday Park.<br />

However, Mr Sintes<br />

said this was the opposite<br />

of what happened.<br />

“Our strong winds<br />

are from the south and<br />

it’s been proven over<br />

and over again that a<br />

lot of them tend to fall<br />

backwards, back over<br />

towards the track.”<br />

Mr Sintes said he went<br />

down to view the damage after<br />

the wind and most of the fallen<br />

trees were rotted through.<br />

He said there was a good<br />

chance those still standing would<br />

be rotten too.<br />

Tim Sintes<br />

“Some of them that came down<br />

from the outside looked like they<br />

were an okay tree, but when they<br />

come down you realise there’s<br />

nothing inside them, just<br />

dust.”<br />

Mr Sintes said this was<br />

because of water from the<br />

estuary flooding its banks<br />

and getting into tree roots.<br />

“As we’ve lost the<br />

protection of the estuary<br />

edge and the reno<br />

mattresses that were once<br />

there, the wave action is<br />

getting into the sandy banks and<br />

undermining the tree roots.”<br />

The damage to these protective<br />

barriers happened during the<br />

earthquakes.<br />

Mr Sintes said they had not yet<br />

been repaired or replaced by the<br />

city council.<br />

City council head of parks<br />

Andrew Rutledge said it was<br />

currently<br />

looking into<br />

options to<br />

protect the<br />

estuary edge.<br />

But the damaged<br />

barriers around<br />

the estuary were<br />

not unsafe, he<br />

said.<br />

“An<br />

assessment of<br />

Andrew<br />

Rutledge<br />

the site is taking place with the<br />

aim of developing options for<br />

coastal edge management.”<br />

“The structures were<br />

compromised during the<br />

earthquakes. However, they do<br />

not present any safety risk to the<br />

public”.<br />

South Brighton Holiday Park<br />

owner Sam Hawkins said there<br />

was potential for more damage.<br />

“One tree that fell would have<br />

been at least 8m tall or more and<br />

it went right across a pathway.”<br />

Mr Hawkins believes out of<br />

the trees still standing along the<br />

estuary, there are 50 or 60 with<br />

the potential to fall in a storm.<br />

Mr Rutledge said six trees<br />

were cut down last Tuesday due<br />

to this risk. Mr Hawkins said<br />

if dangerous trees close to the<br />

holiday park were not removed,<br />

this would cause him to not feel<br />

“safe to send guests or tourists<br />

through that area.”<br />

Work gets<br />

under way<br />

to repair<br />

car park<br />

•From page 1<br />

The car parking area was<br />

badly-damaged in the 2010 and<br />

2011 earthquakes.<br />

Coastal Ward city councillor<br />

David East said between<br />

10 and 12 private owners<br />

are responsible for the<br />

maintenance of different parts<br />

of the car park.<br />

Cr East said very little<br />

work has been done to fix the<br />

damage and complaints about<br />

it had been “going on for years.”<br />

He said injuries at the site<br />

were common.<br />

“There’s been the odd person<br />

that has tripped in the potholes<br />

and elderly people have even<br />

probably had breaks of some<br />

sort.”<br />

New Brighton Business and<br />

Landowners Association’s Paul<br />

Lonsdale said pressure had<br />

been put on the landlords who<br />

owned different parts of the car<br />

park to repair their sites over<br />

summer.<br />

Mr Cotton said repairs to<br />

Coupland’s car park would<br />

be finished in the next two to<br />

three weeks.<br />

•From page 1<br />

“I’m getting older and each<br />

year’s getting harder. It’s quite<br />

physical work,” Mrs Stevenson<br />

said.<br />

She said for all of the birds she<br />

had managed to save, many died<br />

in her care and it had made her<br />

job even harder.<br />

Her husband supported the<br />

decision to seek someone to take<br />

over her role.<br />

“He hates coming home and<br />

seeing me so tired, so I’ve got to<br />

think of him too.” Mrs Stevenson<br />

estimates she cared for about 200<br />

birds last year. All of her work<br />

has been voluntary, with some<br />

financial support coming from<br />

donations.<br />

Mrs Stevenson received $100<br />

in petrol vouchers a year from<br />

the Department of Conservation,<br />

and dog and cat biscuits to mash<br />

up and feed to the birds from the<br />

SPCA and Dogwatch.<br />

She said cats were the main<br />

cause of injuries to birds. But<br />

recently the number of injuries<br />

caused by vehicles had increased.<br />

The number of native wood<br />

pigeons brought to her with<br />

injuries was also increasing. The<br />

birds commonly received injuries<br />

from flying into car windows.<br />

She also cares for a lot of native<br />

fantails.<br />

Mrs Stevenson said there are a<br />

few simple things people can do<br />

to make her job easier.<br />

“One of the main things is<br />

not picking birds up that don’t<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Helping people<br />

Sorting out transport<br />

get into politics<br />

• Matt Slaughter<br />

CHRISTCHURCH East MP Poto<br />

Williams has started hosting<br />

meetings for people who are<br />

interested in the ways they can<br />

make their political mark.<br />

Four people attended the first<br />

meeting, which was held at her<br />

home on Sunday.<br />

Discussion took place on<br />

what was involved in running,<br />

supporting and funding a<br />

campaign.<br />

The meeting “certainly<br />

sent a couple of people away<br />

thinking about things,” Ms<br />

Williams said.<br />

The meetings cater to<br />

those who want to know<br />

how to get involved in policy<br />

discussion, what’s involved<br />

in being a candidate, or those<br />

just interested in meeting likeminded<br />

people. She said with<br />

local body elections in October,<br />

now was the perfect time to start<br />

educating people.<br />

“It’s really about just talking<br />

to people who might want to<br />

get involved in politics from the<br />

view that they might want to be a<br />

candidate.”<br />

Poto<br />

Williams<br />

“It’s also for people who<br />

might want to get involved in<br />

supporting a candidate or helping<br />

run a campaign.”<br />

Ms Willams said after a<br />

successful first meeting, she<br />

wanted them to take place once<br />

a month and venues would<br />

be organised once she knew<br />

how many more people were<br />

interested. She said meetings<br />

like these would have helped<br />

her when she first got into<br />

politics.<br />

“I know as an elected<br />

representative I didn’t know<br />

a lot about what would be<br />

involved in standing before I<br />

asked somebody.”<br />

She said the support and<br />

advice she had since received<br />

throughout her political career<br />

had been one of the main reasons<br />

she had been able to get to where<br />

she is today.<br />

“My local Labour electorate<br />

committee have been very, very<br />

supportive from the moment I<br />

started.”<br />

Ms Williams said she “can not<br />

say enough for what happens<br />

locally” when these sorts of<br />

support networks are in place.<br />

senior manager public<br />

Gibbon responds<br />

to the article<br />

last week about<br />

the ongoing<br />

battle Diana<br />

Isaac Retirement<br />

Village residents<br />

are having over the axing of<br />

the bus service<br />

Environment Canterbury<br />

introduced the idea of a<br />

Community Vehicle Trust for<br />

Diana Isaac Retirement Village<br />

in November and has had two<br />

conversations with Graham<br />

Tate and other residents on the<br />

matter, including the January<br />

meeting.<br />

Throughout Canterbury, where<br />

traditional scheduled public<br />

transport is unavailable, the<br />

Community Vehicle Trust model<br />

has proven to be highly successful<br />

in delivering accessible,<br />

flexible and affordable transport<br />

options to defined geographical<br />

communities. We are focused on<br />

identifying a solution that is sustainable<br />

and will meet the longer<br />

term needs of the residents. The<br />

transport needs of the residents,<br />

and the flexible, close proximity<br />

and community nature of the<br />

OPTION: ECan is investigating a service to transport retirement<br />

village residents now that the Orbiter bus no longer stops<br />

outside the village.<br />

Community Vehicle Trust model<br />

appears to align well with the<br />

current and future transport<br />

needs of the residents.<br />

We are still exploring the<br />

viability of the option with the<br />

residents and Ryman Healthcare.<br />

However, discussions to date<br />

have been positive and focused<br />

on running a trial period of up<br />

to six months, to validate the<br />

feasibility of the idea in this<br />

specific urban context. ECan<br />

would provide support to the retirement<br />

village in setting up its<br />

Community Vehicle Trust, then<br />

all operational matters moving<br />

forward would be managed by<br />

the trust, such as determining<br />

vehicle size and type, destinations<br />

and trip times.<br />

Community Vehicle Trusts<br />

receive annual grant funding<br />

from ECan and the New Zealand<br />

Transport Agency, and obtain<br />

grant funding from other<br />

sources. They also receive funds<br />

from customer usage of the<br />

service to cover the cost of the<br />

journeys taken. These funding<br />

sources combined enable the<br />

trust to procure and manage<br />

their vehicles and associated<br />

administrative functions.<br />

Young players<br />

strongly supported<br />

at local rugby club<br />

Junior players at the New Brighton<br />

Rugby Club will be eagerly awaiting<br />

the start of the <strong>2019</strong> season, which<br />

kicks off in early April.<br />

The club has 250 junior players,<br />

aged from as young as four up to<br />

13, and seeing them take to the field<br />

in their black and gold jerseys on a<br />

Saturday morning makes the club’s<br />

committee members, the coaches<br />

and the parents feel very proud, says<br />

Junior Club captain, Cara Stewart.<br />

Cara’s husband Dougie is also a<br />

Junior Club captain at New Brighton,<br />

and both their sons play for the club.<br />

“Belonging to the club is a great<br />

opportunity for young people to get<br />

involved and be part of something –<br />

everyone enjoys that,” Cara says.<br />

The club is very supportive of the<br />

young players and encourages them,<br />

whatever their skill level, she says.<br />

The 11-13 year-olds have two<br />

practice nights a week, and the 8-10<br />

year-olds practise once a week, playing<br />

at the club’s two grounds – Thompson<br />

Park and Rawhiti Domain.<br />

Inter-club rugby is played on<br />

Saturday mornings, with matches<br />

taking place at club grounds right<br />

around the city.<br />

“It can be a very busy time for<br />

parents, especially if they have two or<br />

three youngsters playing at different<br />

venues,” Cara says.<br />

A team night for the junior players is<br />

held once a season, a family occasion<br />

at which the young club members<br />

are introduced to the senior New<br />

Brighton players, who are all very<br />

supportive of their young club-mates.<br />

New Brighton was also fortunate<br />

to have All Black Ryan Crotty, who<br />

played his junior rugby at New<br />

Brighton and retains close ties with<br />

the club, and Crusader Ollie Jager<br />

attend their Junior Club Day last<br />

season, with the pair presenting<br />

Player of the Day medals and signing<br />

banners for the young players.<br />

Jager, who represents both<br />

Canterbury and the Crusaders, has<br />

played for the club’s Premier Colts<br />

and Senior Division One team in<br />

recent seasons, while Canterbury and<br />

Crusaders player Billy Harmon was<br />

another New Brighton Club member.<br />

“We’re very proud of the New<br />

Brighton Club, but it wouldn’t be the<br />

success it is without the support of the<br />

coaches, the committee and of course,<br />

the parents,” Cara says.<br />

Photography exhibition<br />

showcases the<br />

‘many faces’ of Linwood<br />

ALASDAIR WRIGHT is<br />

combining his 55-year love affair<br />

with cameras and photography<br />

with his love for the area he<br />

lives in.<br />

The Linwood<br />

resident is one of 12<br />

photographers with<br />

work on display at an<br />

exhibition focusing on<br />

the community and its<br />

diversity.<br />

The Many Faces of the<br />

Inner City East/Linwood<br />

exhibition was set to<br />

open yesterday at the<br />

Linwood Community<br />

Arts Centre and Eastside Gallery.<br />

Wright, 59, said he has been<br />

living in Linwood for seven years<br />

and has seen it go through huge<br />

changes since the earthquakes.<br />

He said the aim of his<br />

photographs is to document<br />

what Linwood was like before the<br />

changes occurred and the past is<br />

forgotten.<br />

“It’s important to record things<br />

because when you think I’ll<br />

take that photo now and don’t<br />

have a camera and go back a few<br />

days or years later, the case may<br />

Alasdair Wright<br />

be that they’re gone.” Wright<br />

said Linwood’s population<br />

and landscape has changed.<br />

He said showcasing this in the<br />

photographs was key.<br />

“It’s important to see the<br />

changing face of Linwood because<br />

we’ve got a wide gamut of<br />

society around here.”<br />

“You can travel the<br />

world without even<br />

having to leave home.”<br />

Linwood Community<br />

Arts Centre and Eastside<br />

Gallery exhibition coordinator<br />

Shirley Scarlett<br />

said the display was<br />

about Linwood residents<br />

like Wright “defining<br />

the neighbourhood on their own<br />

terms.”<br />

Ms Scarlett said the exhibition<br />

was also about breaking down the<br />

stereotypes that could sometimes<br />

have a negative effect on how<br />

others viewed Linwood.<br />

“The exhibition focuses on<br />

celebrating and delving deeper<br />

into a community that doesn’t<br />

always get the best coverage.”<br />

It was about “capturing the<br />

good and the beautiful alongside<br />

the challenges and concerns” of<br />

the community, she said<br />

THE SEASIDE Toy Library<br />

hopes an open day will make it<br />

a haven for toy lovers and their<br />

families.<br />

The library, which operates<br />

out of St Luke’s Church in South<br />

New Brighton, will host the<br />

event on March 9 from 9.30amnoon.<br />

It aims to promote the library<br />

to people in the area and attract<br />

new members.<br />

Seaside Toy Library chairman<br />

Andy Dimond said it was one<br />

of many businesses in the east<br />

that had a hard time after the<br />

earthquakes.<br />

“The library did struggle<br />

financially and struggled with<br />

attracting membership and<br />

volunteers.”<br />

Since then, Mr Dimond said<br />

the toy library had employed a<br />

part-time librarian and this had<br />

helped it gain some stability.<br />

However, he said word needed<br />

to get out if the library should be<br />

used to its full potential.<br />

“There are a lot of young<br />

families in the area who don’t<br />

know about the toy library,<br />

how much it costs and when<br />

we operate, so this is a good<br />

opportunity to promote<br />

the library and also build<br />

relationships in the local area,”<br />

he said.<br />

SENIOR LIVING<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />

Centuries old folk remedy supports<br />

good health!<br />

A fermented liquid health<br />

tonic offers an array of<br />

powerful health benefits. It is<br />

none other than the popular<br />

apple cider vinegar or ACV.<br />

Since the time of Hippocrates – the “Father<br />

of Medicine” – ACV has been renowned for its<br />

curative properties.<br />

In his popular book “ARTHRITIS & FOLK<br />

MEDICINE”, DR. D.C. Jarvis reports how he<br />

found that Vermonters who regularly consumed<br />

ACV and Honey had excellent health with<br />

many putting in a vigorous day’s work on the<br />

farm even when well into their eighties. He also<br />

noted the effects of ACV and H on arthritis to be<br />

remarkable with many patients reporting almost<br />

total relief after taking a course of the<br />

mixture. Dr. Jarvis surmised that<br />

the acid and potassium in cider<br />

vinegar counteracted calcium<br />

deposits and helped the body<br />

control calcium use. He also noted<br />

that Vermonters who consumed<br />

ACV and H around meal time<br />

had excellent blood pressure and<br />

circulation. The reason he found<br />

was that protein foods thickened<br />

the blood and vinegar thinned it.<br />

As the blood thickens it cannot<br />

pass as easily and quickly through<br />

the blood vessels and capillaries. This<br />

poor blood flow would reduce cellular<br />

health by limiting nutrients to the cells<br />

as well as waste elimination from the cells.<br />

To prevent cell damage the body naturally<br />

increases blood pressure but this puts more stress<br />

on the blood vessels, organs and heart. Having<br />

ACV and H with meals will help prevent protein<br />

raising the blood pressure. It also contributes<br />

to a feeling of greater well-being because the<br />

thinner blood circulates quickly and more easily<br />

through the blood vessels. Dr. Jarvis found regular<br />

consumption of CV and H to be an excellent<br />

health tonic with numerous Health attributes.<br />

ACV is highly nutritious as it contains all the<br />

goodness of the apple in a form that is readily<br />

accepted by the bodyGood health starts with good<br />

digestion and assimilation of nutrients. ACV taken<br />

before food will stimulate and promote healthy<br />

digestion and assimilation of vital nutrients for<br />

good health. A well-functioning digestive system<br />

helps prevent disease by neutralising any toxic<br />

substances that enter the body.<br />

It is important to note not all ACV is produced<br />

in the traditional way and results are likely to<br />

prove disappointing with these other vinegars.<br />

Marshall’s Premium ACV & ACV with 20%<br />

Manuka Honey is produced in Canterbury from<br />

Organic whole apples in the traditional way. It is<br />

double strength so you can use less.<br />

Device to prevent<br />

snoring<br />

Why put up with broken sleep, when<br />

help is at hand with Snorex, an appliance<br />

that prevents snoring, sleep apnoea, and<br />

dry and raw throats.<br />

Snorex is custom-fitted to your mouth<br />

for comfort, and a follow up service is<br />

provided.<br />

Denise Lim has been involved with<br />

Snores for 22 years and has had a 98%<br />

success rate with<br />

people using the<br />

appliance. Snoring<br />

can be a health<br />

hazard, causing<br />

sleep apnoea, where<br />

the person actually<br />

stops breathing for<br />

short periods.<br />

It can cause<br />

short-term memory<br />

loss, tiredness and<br />

contribute to high<br />

blood pressure.<br />

The Snorex<br />

device does not feel<br />

restrictive, is noninvasive<br />

and carries<br />

a money-back<br />

guarantee.<br />

Many people are referred by ear, nose<br />

and throat specialists, however, anyone can<br />

phone for an appointment.<br />

For an information pack or to discuss<br />

the Snorex further, phone Denise Lim on<br />

Collagen<br />

The Body’s Youth Protein<br />

Collagen is the primary protein in the<br />

body. It is a major component of skin,<br />

hair, nails, muscles, tendons, ligaments,<br />

joint cartilage, bones, gums, teeth, eyes,<br />

and blood vessels.<br />

In fact collagen is the primary<br />

structural component for all tissue<br />

in the body, providing the strength<br />

and resilience associated with youth,<br />

beauty and wellness. The body’s natural<br />

collagen production decreases with<br />

age resulting in many signs of aging,<br />

such as flaccid skin, wrinkles, ligament<br />

and tendon injuries and aching joints.<br />

Collagen supplementation is one of<br />

the most fundamental things a person<br />

can do to prevent premature aging and<br />

promote youthful vitality.<br />

NEOCELL are the industry leaders<br />

in research on collagen supplementation.<br />

Through advanced research they have<br />

perfected a way to hydrolyse collagen and<br />

effectively reduce its molecular weight this<br />

improving the absorption of collagen into<br />

the blood stream by over 90%.<br />

A clinical study on NEOCELL<br />

COLLAGEN has shown skin hydration to<br />

increase an average of 21% and up to 50%,<br />

with 92% of test subjects experiencing<br />

firmer, softer skin. Most people taking<br />

NEOCELL COLLAGEN reported seeing<br />

visible improvements within two weeks.<br />

Collagen supplementation provides<br />

the nutrients necessary to support the<br />

body’s collagen supply. It can help reduce<br />

fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin<br />

elasticity, support building of strong bones<br />

and teeth, strengthen the nails and hair,<br />

and is vital for muscle growth, It also<br />

assists weight loss by helping burn fat<br />

for energy, promotes wound healing by<br />

supporting the regeneration of healthy<br />

tissue as well as help support overall<br />

health.<br />
