TONY RALFE was recognised

for 51 years of involvement

at the Bishopdale Tennis

Club by receiving the Ian

Jones Memorial Award at the

Canterbury Tennis Awards.

Ralfe, who is approaching 70,

has been made a life member by

Bishopdale, Wilding Park and

Canterbury Tennis. For almost

34 years he has also owned

and operated a sports shop at

Bishopdale Mall. However,

he is currently trying to sell

Funding

shortfall if

intersection

lights are

approved

• By Jess Gibson

MORE THAN half of the 1085

submissions on the Harewood,

Breens and Gardiners junction

signalled support for $1.2 million

traffic lights.

But if the option is approved,

the city council will need to find

$800,000 to fund it.

A proposal on two options to

upgrade safety at the intersection

bought in the highest amount

of feedback from May 6 to June

10 of any of the city council’s

consultations in the last 12

months.

Head of transport Richard

Osborne said staff are still in

the process of analysing the

submissions for the Harewood,

Breens and Gardiners Rds

intersection but confirmed

the majority supported the

installation of traffic lights.

The other option, which is the

city council’s preferred option, is

to make both Gardiners Rd and

Breens Rd left turn in and left

turn out only, and installing a

traffic-light controlled pedestrian

crossing – which would cost

$400,000.

from the editor’s desk

THE PEOPLE have spoken (see page 1).

They want traffic lights at the

troublesome Harewood, Breens and

Gardiners Rds intersection.

Troublesome for motorists – but

troublesome too for the city council.

More than half of the 1085 public submissions on the

intersection are in favour of the second option for planned

improvements. But that will cost $1.2 million and the city

council only has $400,000, earmarked for option one. That

involves changes to the intersection’s layout.

But the city council says it doesn’t have the other $800,000 for

what people actually want.

So if the city council decides to go with the majority, there

are likely to be more delays to improving the intersection until

funding is found.

Traffic decision welcomed

• By Jess Gibson

Mark Wilson

ONE OF the main drivers in

opposing a traffic management

plan for St Albans, Mark Wilson,

has applauded its rejection.

On Thursday, the city council

voted not to endorse the Downstream

Effects Management

Plan, which was designed to

mitigate traffic

when the $240

million Northern

Corridor

opens next

year.

Mr Wilson,

who is a St Albans

resident,

helped organised

a

2400-signature petition opposing

the DEMP last year as the

community felt it prioritised

vehicles above people.

He said there is still a long way

to go before the community get

the outcome they want but the

decision is a step in the right

direction.

“The overriding feeling is that

the community is thankful that

staff have tried their best and

that they will continue to try

their best,” Mr Wilson said.

The DEMP did not address

traffic volumes on Cranford St

Elected members unanimously

passed the recommendations

Heathcote and Papanui-Innes

community boards to turn down

the plan. The recommendations

passed were slightly amended

boards resolved.

This includes intersection upgrades

Mr Wilson said the main

project the community wants to

see delivered is an “express bus

service that reduces the number

of single car commuters.”

This was part of an alternative

plan developed by traffic engineer

Axel Wilke that uses two of

the four lanes of the Northern

Arterial for busses.

Said Mr Wilke: “The agencies

delivering the project are, at this

point, considering a city-bound

high-occupancy vehicle lane

and express bus services for four

hours per day. We argue that’s

not good enough yet, and we will

further work with the agencies

to advance their thinking.”

FUNDING: If traffic lights are approved for the Harewood,

Breens and Gardiners Rds intersection, the city council would

need to allocate $800,000 in additional funding to the project.

Possible lights funding concern

•From page 1

Mr Osborne said if the traffic

lights are approved, the city

council would need to allocate

additional funding to the project

as part of the Annual Plan and

Long Term Plan process.

This means another existing

project would need to be deferred

or a rates increase would

be needed to provide

the additional budget

required.

However, if the city

council’s preferred option

was approved, work

could begin in the first

half of 2020 as it has

allocated $400,000 towards

the upgrades and

it would likely be eligible

for a funding subsidy

from the Government.

City councillor and

chairwoman of the

infrastructure, transport

and environment committee,

Pauline Cotter

said funding was “quite

clearly spelt out in the

document.”

“The question is, did

people read it properly or did

people just vote emotionally and

say ‘traffic lights sound like a

good idea, let’s tick that’,” said Cr

Cotter.

“There’s a big queue for the

money in Christchurch as we are

all very aware of and this is not

one of the most dangerous intersections

in the city.”

The intersection is currently

ranked number 61 on a list of

the city’s 100 most dangerous

intersections.

“It would seem quite bizarre to

accelerate that above the priority

programme and I think other

communities could well question

that and ask why it’s happening,”

Cr Cotter said.

But Harewood Ward city councillor

Aaron Keown said

the intersection is a “safety

issue” and that other

communities would not

judge its funding if they

“believed in democracy.”

“If that’s the logic then

we should apply it to funding

community centres,

swimming pools and all

Aaron Keown

the other things that are

nice to have.”

He said the city council

can apply for a subsidy for

the intersection from the

New Zealand Transport

Agency.

“My expectation as an

elected member and a

ratepayer is that our staff

would do that,” he said.

Pauline Cotter

“I will be keeping a

very close eye on the application

we make for the funding of the

intersection to make sure it has

the best chance possible of succeeding,”

Cr Keown said.

A report on the two options

will come before the Fendalton-

Waimairi-Harewood Community

Board who will make

a recommendation to the city

council.

After that, the city council will

make its final decision.

Fundraiser has dual role

THE FIGHT to end period

poverty is under way.

The Fill-a-Bag fundraiser

for The Good Fund is being

held in 16 locations nationwide

throughout June.

Kimberli Schuitman, co-founder

of The Good Fund, is hosting

the Christchurch event from

2-4pm on June 22 at the Landsdowne

Community Centre.

Ms Schuitman said the fundraiser

pulled together two things

that were extremely important

to her.

“Period poverty is rife in New

Zealand and by talking about

it we can break down taboos

and create an awareness around

this cycle of poverty that keeps

children from achieving their

learning milestones. It is about

ensuring menstruating people

in New Zealand have easy and

affordable access to sustainable

and more comfortable menstrual

products,” she said.

They are currently seeking

donations of children’s clothing

that will be recirculated from

a family who no longer needs

them to another in need to keep

them out of a landfill, says Ms

Schuitman.

To date the quality of the

clothing donated has been incredible,

a lot of people will walk

away with a real bargain.

They are also looking for bags

you break a string on Saturday

morning you can’t get it restrung,

but: “I used to play veterans and

Ralfe isn’t just accustomed

There will be lots of other fun

“The fundraiser is an important

event in bringing Christchurch

communities together to

share baby clothes, catch up with

friends and raise awareness of

period poverty in our community,”

she said.

would normally be unable to afford

them,” Ms Schuitman said.

Fendalton centre may get more services

• By Jess Gibson

ANOTHER ONE-stop shop may

be on the cards for the northwest

– this time in Fendalton.

The city council is considering

expanding the Fendalton Library

Service Centre to offer postal

services, bill payments and Metro

it has become a full NZ Post

Retired ‘musketeers’ still helping

• By Jess Gibson

A TRIO of retired friends –

dubbed “the three musketeers”

– were recognised for their

services to Ronald McDonald

House on Monday.

Gus Gale, of Belfast, David

Chappie (Avonhead) and Neil

Fleming (Ilam), all former

teachers, received an award

from Volunteering Canterbury

for their work over the past five

years.

They meet every Wednesday

morning to help with a range

of tasks at Ronald McDonald

House on Cashel St, such as

keeping the grounds tidy,

fixing toys, washing waste bins,

plumbing and electrical repairs.

Said Mr Chappie: “I was

surprised because we certainly

don’t come here to look for any

accolade, we come here because

it’s a worthwhile organisation

that we have heard about that we

could help at ground level.”

“The people here are so

accommodating and making

everyone feel so welcome. The

families are going through a

tough patch in their lives but

there’s a joy all the way from

the staff to the mums and dads

and the kids being picked up

and cuddled. There’s a quality

here I don’t think you would

find in many other institutions.

It’s a quality based on love

and concern for one’s human

beings.”

Ronald McDonald

House offers support and

accommodation to families with

children in hospital.

The three musketeers’ shared

background in education adds

up to a total of more than 120

years at primary, secondary and

Mr Fleming started

Mr Chappie and Mr Gale

agreed to help “on one

morning’s work they go out for

lunch and a beer.

“We decided to set a pseudochallenge

by limiting our choice

of lunch place to new or recently

changed venues. We range

widely with a requirement that

the selected venue has to serve

beer and it has to be new to us,”

Mr Fleming said.

He said each lunch is spiced

with recollections from their

Gender neutral loos for Burnside High

• By Tatiana Gibbs

THE SOUTH Island’s largest

high school will soon have a

gender neutral bathroom.

Burnside High School is

following a nationwide trend

of being inclusive and diverse

by planning a gender neutral

toilet facility, which is due to

next month

a gender

diverse space where they feel

The new bathroom will be in

the school’s central block.

“This is a big step for us in

order to acknowledge and

recognise our gender neutral

students,” Mr Holstein said.

Burnside High follows

Beckenham Primary School

and Lincoln High School,

which also have gender neutral

bathrooms.

The trend has been supported

by the Ministry of Education,

which has funded the facility at

Burnside High.

The school has a total roll of

Teacher in charge of the

club Karen Healey said

Burnside High has students

who feel “uncomfortable using

bathrooms that don’t match

their gender identity.”

“We really want schools

to be a safe and supporting

environment for students, and

that can mean adjusting our

mind, language and even our

buildings,” she said.

It follows Burnside High’s

decision to open up the

school uniform regulations to

interpretation by students.

Students can now choose

what school uniform items they

are comfortable in, rather than

Dead kauri

tree to be

A KAURI tree which died several

weeks after it was planted at St

The 12m kauri had to be

removed due to a problem with

its roots. The city council will also

wollemi pines.

Wollemi pines are considered

one of the world’s rarest plants

Papanui-Innes Community

Board member John Stringer

said the kauri tree’s decline was

mainly caused by girdling roots,

which meant the tree strangled

itself below ground.

He said city council staff dug up

and water blasted the roots and on

inspection found the root system

was deformed.

Due to the advanced state of

the tree’s decline and its root

deformities, corrective measures

were not an option.

international break

• By Jess Gibson

COTSWOLD SCHOOL’S Freya Hall

hardly ever stops dancing.

Outside of the five hours she spends

practicing at Silhouette Studios City in

Linwood every week, Freya, 7, constantly

uses dance to “express how she is feeling.”

Her mum, Laura Hall, who lives in

Bishopdale, said Freya will dance to a

genre of music that fits her mood until it is

time to go to bed.

Now Freya has an opportunity to take

the next leap in her goal to become a fulltime

professional dancer.

Freya will compete at the Evolution

Dance finals on the Gold Coast next year.

She qualified after finishing in the top five

for her age at the national competition in

Christchurch last month.

Freya will need to learn two new solo

dances before she takes the international

stage – one jazz and one contemporary.

Mrs Hall said in spite of the task being

“quite a big undertaking”, Freya has not

shown any nerves yet.

“It’s a pretty big deal for her,” Mrs Hall

said.

Freya fell in love with dance about

three years ago after she went along to

a ballroom class with her older brother

Quinn.

“She started doing ballroom in

the beginning and that led to more

opportunities within the studio to do

other types of dancing. After about six

months she was competing solo. It went

A VERSION of Disney’s Beauty and the

Beast will be brought to life at Papanui

High School this week.

The school’s annual production, called

Beauty and the Beast Jr, will involve 68

students and starts tomorrow at 7pm.

It will run everyday in the lead up to a

matinee performance at 2pm on Saturday.

All performances will take place in the

school hall, 30 Langdons Rd.

Beauty and the Beast Jr tells the story of

Belle, an adventurous young girl, and the

Beast, her hideous captor, who is actually a

young prince trapped under a spell.

In order to break the spell, the Beast

from nothing to a lot really quickly” Mrs

Hall said. She now competes regularly in

both jazz and lyrical styles and is also a

ballroom and Latin dancer.

“She’s always the first one at practice,”

said Mrs Hall.

To fundraise for the upcoming trip, Mrs

Hall has launched a Givealittle page and

will be selling plants donated by people in

the community.

Freya also busks outside Bishopdale

New World and in the central city with

her brother.

Unique approach

to helping kids thrive!

For parents that have children struggling

with anxiety, depression, behavioural

issues, or in fact, anything that is troubling

them or causing disruption to family life, it

can sometimes seem that no-one can help

and nothing works.

Amanda Staniford, founder and

director of Kids Life Academy, says many

parents come to her with issues like these,

desperate to get help for their children,

which they haven’t found anywhere else.

Providing that help is the purpose of Kids

Life Academy, and is Amanda’s passion.

Drawing on her diverse background and

experience in education, including special

needs, emotional intelligence, drama

teaching, neuro linguistic programming,

educational kinesiology and life coaching,

Amanda began developing Kids Life

Academy five years ago.

She has created programmes for

primary-age children (Rock Solid Kids)

and pre-school children (Little Pebbles).

Teens have access to Amanda’s expertise

via group or individual coaching sessions.

“I have a different approach, which is

holistic and unique. For me the three

keys to helping children overcome any

problems are imagination, visualisation

and belief.”

“The real magic wand is the child’s

own mind.” - Jose Ortega Y Gasset

The weekly classes are based on a term

theme, which caters for the immediate

needs of the students enrolled.

“The children have a lot of fun, and

are encouraged to use their imagination

through drama. The drama platform

allows children to explore their thoughts

and feelings in a supported and safe

environment,” Amanda says.

“It allows me to understand their

particular issues and help them develop the

skills and techniques to overcome them.

“They also have a journal that they

use to record what they are ‘happy and

grateful’ for each week and this is shared

at the beginning of each lesson.

“Each child is a treasured member of

our KLA family and as such I place a great

deal of importance on communication

with parents.”

Another aspect of Amanda’s work,

which can be very helpful for some

families, is the kids coaching sessions.

Amanda is currently taking bookings

and enrolments for next term, with

classes being held after school on

Mondays at the Waimairi Community

Centre. Numbers are limited to 16 per

class. July School Holiday programme

bookings and enquiries are also welcome.

It’s

happening

at the...

Bishopdale Village Mall

Pharmacy offers

natural remedies for

stress and anxiety

Stress and anxiety can be caused

by various situations in our lives,

and at this time of the year

exams, for example, can

create enormous pressure

for young students.

When coupled with

the winter bugs that

are doing the rounds,

it means students can find it

difficult to focus and perform at

their best.

For them, or anyone

dealing with problems

like this, some

advice from trusted

professionals can

prove very useful.

Always there to

help, the pharmacists

at Unichem Bishopdale

Pharmacy suggest natural

stress remedies may provide solutions,

and they are offering free samples of two

particular remedies so customers can try

them first.

GO Stress Remedy contains L-Theanine,

the compound found in green and black

tea, which has been associated with relaxing

and calming effects. Other potential

benefits include improving clarity and

focus and supporting a more restful and

prolonged sleep. Also, it is not associated

with the drowsiness that can be caused by

other supplements or medicines for stress

and anxiety.

GO Stress Remedy contains L-Theanine

in a concentrated form and is a great option

to try for those experiencing stress or

requiring a greater level of focus and clarity.

The pharmacists also suggest C0Q10

supplements, which have the potential to

increase energy levels and support and

protect body organs, particularly the heart

and brain.

CoQ10 is an enzyme involved in

energy production. There are a number

of factors that can affect the CoQ10 levels

in our bodies, including age and certain

medications (such as statins, which are

usually taken for high cholesterol).

Both these are available as free

samples to try at Unichem Bishopdale

Pharmacy, but as with all

supplements or medicines it

is important to talk with a

pharmacist to make sure

they are right for you.

This includes checking

to see if they interact with

anything you may already be

taking.

Whenever you call into

the Unichem Bishopdale

Pharmacy there is a

pharmacist available to

provide personalised

advice on medicines,

natural health products

and any health issues

you may have.

Unichem Bishopdale

Pharmacy is conveniently

located in the Bishopdale

Village Mall. Opening hours are

Golden tan, gorgeous

nails for the school ball

Every girl wants to look stunning for her school ball, and that

requires some preparation.

Michelle of Euphoria Beauty in Bishopdale suggests having

a spray tan to give the skin a natural, golden glow and

complement the ball gown.

“The spray tan I use looks beautiful and has a wonderful

cherry aroma,” Michelle says. “It takes 20 minutes to

apply and lasts seven to 10 days.”

A full body spray tan usually costs $35, but for the

ball season – June and July – it costs $25 at Euphoria

Beauty.

The other ball season special at Euphoria is shellac

nails. Usually $55, they are $45 in June and July. The

nails are available in a wide range of gorgeous colours,

application takes 25 to 30 minutes and they last for at

least two weeks without chipping.

Bookings for these treatments should be made a

week ahead of the ball.

As well as spray tanning and shellac nails,

Euphoria offers the full range of beauty services

including waxing, facials and massage. For the

facials, Michelle uses Environ cosmeceuticals

from South Africa.

Euphoria Beauty is located on the ground floor

of the YMCA building at Bishopdale Mall, with

plenty of parking outside.

Opening hours are Tuesday to Friday 9.30am-

5.30pm with late nights till 8pm Tuesday and

Thursday, and Saturday 10am-4pm. To book an

appointment, phone 359 3445.

Silver medal exceeds expectation


JUST ONE team practice the

night before leaving for Mongolia

didn’t get in the way of Ashley

Strawbridge and her New

Zealand team winning silver at

the FIBA Under 18 3x3 World

Cup.

The 17-year-old Rangi Ruru

Girls’ School basketballer was

part of the New Zealand team

along with Sharne Pupuke-

Robati, Tayla Dalton and Charlisse

Leger-Walker who outdid

expectations to reach the final of

the tournament in Ulaanbaatar,

Mongolia, before falling to the

United States.

“I’m still riding the high, it’s

been really cool to have people

at school ask about and be able

to share the experience,” said

Strawbridge.

The team had next to no experience

playing 3x3 basketball, but

were selected on their strengths

from the five-aside game which

would translate well to the high

intensity 3x3 format.

New Zealand, seeded 15th,

went into the tournament with

little expectation in the 20-strong

World Cup. However, they finished

second in their pool with

wins over Hungary (16-9), Russia

(14-2) and Poland (21-4). Their

only pool loss came against the

United States 11-20.

“The fact we got to the quarter

finals was amazing in itself,” said

Strawbridge.

In the quarter-finals they

defeated Japan 14-12 in an

extremely tight match which

went to overtime. The win set up

a semi-final with No. 1 ranked

China, which New Zealand swept

aside 21-15 before going down to

the United States 13-19 in a more

than respectable performance.

“When we first played them we

were like: ‘Oh my god we’re playing

America’,” said Strawbridge.

“In the final we knew we had

no pressure and all eyes were on

them.”

Strawbridge’s biggest contribution

to the Kiwi effort came on

the defensive end which saw her

touted as one of the best defensive

players at the tournament.

She says the biggest challenge

came against the United States.

“They are just so quick, so it felt

really good any time you could

stay in front of them and stop

them from scoring,” she said.

Strawbridge will now turn her

attention to representing New

Zealand in the five-a-side game

at the Oceania Championships in

Noumea, New Caledonia, from

August 19-24.

Strawbridge has returned

Your money, your

home, your choice

Merivale.

These days, it’s all too easy to feel as

though we are just a number when we

work with the banks. Kim at Mylend

understands, and wants to make sure

that her clients are treated as individuals

with tailored finance packages that suit

them, their situation and their future.

Having previously worked with one of

the major banks, and real estate firms,

Kim’s background enables her to have full

knowledge of all transactions to do with

home lending.

Mylend’s founder Kim Laurenson has

longstanding relationships with all the

banks across Canterbury and she can

negotiate on your behalf to get the very best

deal for you – better still, the banks pay

for this service, it’s free for the customer.

She does her best to demystify the jargon

and make the process as simple and

straightforward as possible. She appreciates

that as a customer of the banks, you

have choices, and she believes in finding

solutions that best match your needs. “It’s

not a one-size-fits all,” she says. Whether

it is your first home or you are refinancing,

Kim knows that “it’s your money, your

home, and your needs that should be

considered.” She will help you find out if

what the bank is offering is right for you, or

whether something else would work better.

With over seven years’ experience

working in this industry, and ably

supported by Operations Manager

Georgina Bell, Kim has a thorough

knowledge of our local banks’ processes

and options. Buying your first home,

moving house or simply refinancing to

take advantage of the current interest

rates can be complicated. Kim is there to

ensure arranging finance is as stress-free as

possible.

Kim is completely impartial and

independent and she will talk you through

your options, and help you make a sensible

and informed decision. Kim explains that

with interest rates as low as 3.85%, this is a

wonderful time to refix your lending and

use the rates to your advantage. She will

sit with you and help you to maximise the

repayments to the bank, so your lending is

paid off faster.

With so much experience, the Mylend

team find most of their clients are

returning customers or are referred to

them by word-of-mouth. They trust Kim’s

advice and know that she and Georgina

are there to help them navigate lending

for long-term financial success. Visit

FOCUS ON HEALTH

Dilo Oil

the remarkable

skin rejuvenator

Until Rachel Hunter’s popular TV

series “TOUR OF BEAUTY” Dilo Oil was

relatively unknown being one of the bestkept

secrets of the Pacific Islands. It may

however be the number one natural beauty

oil available as it possesses powerful natural

skin regeneration, anti-aging and healing

properties.

According to ethnobotanist Chris

Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-low) Oil

is a powerful skin regenerator as it is one

of the most effective agents in promoting

the regeneration and formation of new

tissue, thereby accelerating wound healing

and the growth of healthy skin. Dilo Oil

is super-absorbing and nourishing and

can penetrate all three layers of the skin,

offering exceptional cell hydration and

regeneration. As well as this, Dilo Oil has

potent anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial,

antifungal and antioxidant properties.

Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep

the skin young and youthful and for just

about any skin complaint. Some of the

conditions for which it is considered

helpful include abrasions, cuts and cracks,

acne and acne scars, pimples, blemishes,

stretch marks, wrinkles, blisters, burns

(including chemical and radiation),

diabetic sores, rashes, shaving irritation,

dry or scaly skin, eczema, psoriasis,

dermatitis, herpes sores (cold-sores), insect

bites and stings, rheumatism, pain, sciatica,

shingles, sunburn, rosacea, athlete’s foot,

skin eruptions, warts, skin ulcers and sores,

nappy rash and almost any other skin

ailment and often with incredible results.

Many beauty and skincare products

on the market today contain unnatural

ingredients that can be toxic and may even

contribute to disease. Generally the benefits

are exaggerated and often only temporary

or camouflage. Marshall’s Dilo Oil is 100%

pure and certified organic. It has been coldpressed

from the Dilo nut and contains

absolutely no additives. Polynesians and

Southeast Asians have revered Dilo Oil for

centuries believing it to be a sacred gift of

nature and the Gods. Dilo Oil contains a

unique blend of fatty acids that stimulate

and supports the skins natural healing

process through the growth of new healthy

skin tissue. It is a remarkable product we

highly recommend to everyone. A 50ml

bottle is $19.90 and 100ml only $32.50.

Further information is available from

the Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s

Road, New Brighton, Phone: 388-5757.

Inflammation

an underlying factor in just about

every chronic health condition!

Inflammation can have a major impact

on our health and quality of life. It is a

sign our body is aggressively trying to

protect and heal itself. Common signs of

inflammation can be redness, pain, heat,

swelling and stiffness. Acute inflammation

is the short term inflammation when you

bang your knee or hurt your back. Chronic

inflammation is a disease that can affect

our overall health and life expectancy.

It is conditions like arthritis, allergies,

asthma, inflammatory bowel disease,

eczema, diabetes, cancer, Alzheimer’s and

in fact most diseases. An example of the

seriousness of chronic inflammation is that

inflammation in the arteries causes plaque

to build up in the arteries that leads to

hardening of the arteries or atherosclerosis.

If this plaque continues to build it reduces

blood flow to the organs. This causes blood

pressure to increase. The next danger

especially with raised blood pressure is

some of the plaque can break off forming

a clot that can block blood flow. These clots

are responsible for the majority of heart

attacks and strokes.

Natural supplements like turmeric

(curcumin), boswellia, Artemisia, omega-3

fatty acids, cider vinegar, magnesium, msm

and vitamin-C can play an important part

in reducing inflammation and speeding the

healing process.

Curcumin is the active ingredient in

turmeric. The problem is there is only a

Inflammation affects our quality of life. It is associated with pain, swelling,

heat, redness & stiffness. Inflammation is a part of most diseases even

the aging process. These diseases include: Eczema, Asthma, Allergies,

Cardiovascular, Alzheimer’s, Cancer, IBS, Arthritis, Thyroid, Diabetes &

many more. Natural anti-inflammatories effectively reduce inflammation

at its source while also stopping the initiation of inflammation in the first

place. This leads to a faster more efficient healing process & a better

quality of life.

GOOD HEALTH TURMERIC EXTRA STRENGTH:

Provides powerful natural health & anti-inflammatory support. Excellent for

pain, swelling, stiffness & joint issues. Contains scientifically researched

small amount in the spice and you would

have to have a large amount to obtain much

benefit. Scientists have thru developed

special concentrated supplements that

offer enhanced absorption. CuruWin as

used in Good Health TURMERIC EXTRA

STRENGTH is clinically proven to be

46 times more absorbable than standard

turmeric supplements. It offers powerful

health support.

Boswellia (Indian Frankincense herb) has

been used for centuries in Asian countries

for chronic inflammation and other

diseases including certain cancers. Good

Health TURMERIC EXTRA STRENGTH

contains a potent extract of Boswellia.

Good Health TURMERIC EXTRA

STRENGTH also contains Artemisia annua

or Sweet Wormwood. Artemisia has been

shown to possess anti-inflammatory, antiviral,

antioxidant, antimicrobial, joint and

cartilage support benefits. It is also being

researched for use in cancer treatments as it

has been found to promote apoptosis (cell

death) of cancer cells, without harming

healthy cells.

Omega-3 fish oil also offers powerful

anti-inflammatory benefits without the side

effects of prescription anti-inflammatory

drugs. It also offers numerous health

benefits.

Natural supplements can be highly

beneficial in supporting your good health.

At Marshall’s Health and Natural Therapy

our experienced Natural Health

Advisers can help you choose

the right supplements for you

as everyone is different. We

can advise you on the best

times to take the supplements,

the right dosage and how to

obtain maximum benefits.

We specialise in helping you

optimise your health through

correct supplementation, diet

and lifestyle. Often it is the

small changes that can make a

huge difference. Better health

can be achieved naturally.

HOME & HEATING

Get rid of

dampness in

your house

Now with the colder and wetter weather

on its way, home owners are focusing on

ways to make their homes comfortable,

warm and healthy for their families

throughout winter. Rising damp is an issue

that affects many of our older properties

which suffer from poor, or no, insulation.

In Canterbury especially, post-quake, many

people have relocated to homes that suffer

from rising damp which can be associated

with health problems. Independent tests

have shown that up to 40 litres of water

can rise from the ground and enter a

house every day, leading to mildew, mould,

condensation and musty smells. Moulds

can produce various allergic reactions

and the frail, elderly and very young are

especially vulnerable.

Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a

locally owned and operated firm. The

team understands the problems caused

by rising damp and are there to help.

They will come to your damp home

and pump a lightweight, flowable foam

concrete under your timber floored home.

Specially adapted for our New Zealand

conditions and applications it provides a

layer of protection against rising moisture.

An unexpected benefit that the team at

Canterbury Foam Concrete have noticed

recently, is that many owners of properties

which had underfloor foam concrete

installed, reported that it also provided

protection against liquefaction after

the earthquakes.

Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete

Ltd now for your free, no obligation

quote and complimentary appraisal of

your underfloor ventilation needs. Phone

03 376 4608 or 0508FOAMCO for more

information.

Does your range

hood suck?

Whether it plain sucks, or whether it

doesn’t suck enough, or even if it is a noisy

sucker - Smooth-Air can help.

Smooth-Air can either improve your

current range hood, or custom build to

your specifications.

“We can take your attractive but noisy,

underperforming range hood and retrofit

it with one of our whisper quiet remote

extraction fans.” says Richard Jack,

Regional Manager of Smooth-Air, “We

have fans which can sit in the ceiling space,

or outside on your wall or roof to make it

extra quiet.”

In-house testing showed a difference of

20dbA (decibels) between a remote fan

from Smooth-Air and a common in-hood

fan range hood. This corresponds to a

quadrupling in perceived noise level.

Range hood conversions include removal

of existing fan and rewiring for new remote

fan. Your local sparky can easily carry out

installation of the new fan.

For kitchens not suited to a standard

range hood, Smooth-Air can manufacture

and powdercoat a bespoke range hood to

match your décor. Custom built range

hoods have the benefit of being designed

specifically for your house.

As well as being whisper quiet, Smooth-

Air’s remote fans are powerful - sucking

out cooking smells and moisture so they

don’t circulate around your home.

Moisture in your home can cause mould

and mildew on your walls and furnishings.

It is also bad for the health of the occupants.

Household cooking is a major source of

internal moisture, therefore an effective

kitchen extraction system can make a

significant difference to internal moisture

levels.

Smooth-Air can also help with other

forms of ventilation, such as bathroom

extraction, condensation reduction or

whole house ventilation.

Contact Smooth-Air on 0800 SMOOTH

(0800 766 684) to ask how they can help

you with your kitchen extraction, as well

as any other ventilation requirements.

THE PAPANUI-I nes

Community Board has taken the

rare step of starting a petition

to figh the city council over

funding.

Signatures are being co lected

in a bid to get funding for a community

facility in Shirley.

It comes after the city council

removed funding for the centre

pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the

intersection with Hi ls Rd. This

was the site of the former community

centre, which was badly

damaged in the February 2,

20 1, earthquake.

The removal o funding

prompted community board

chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten

to stand down, citing it as her “die

in the ditch” project.

Ms Jone said the board’s role

is to represen the community,

and by gathering signatures from

residents, it was fulfi ling that

role.

“One of the roles of a community

board is to represent and act

as advocate for the interests of its

community and this is what we

are doing. The LTP and a nual

plans are a l about lo bying the

council.”

THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave

Rock Apartments are expecting the

Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off

on a se tlement agr emen this w ek.

Body corporate chairman Mike

White said the group had gone

into mediation with IAG and EQC

on February 20, and signed off

on a deal with IAG on February

2 – coincidenta ly seven years

to the day after the February 2,

20 1, earthquake. However, they

are waiting for EQC to sign the

agr ement.

“Given that EQC actua ly drafted

the agr ement, there’ l be no

problem with them doing that.”

The apartment suffered damage

in the February and June, 20 1,

earthquakes and were demolished in

late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the

difference betw en indemnity value,

$10 mi lion, and the sum insured,

$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body

corporate.

The mediation agr ement

prevented Mr White from disclosing

the se tlement amount, but he said it

involved the two parties paying “a bit

more money than they’d wanted to

earlier.”
