Hornby residents back
fight over waste plant
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A GROUP of Hornby residents
have stood beside Prebbleton to
fight against a waste plant from
going in their backyard – taking
their protest to the city council
last week.
Protestors attended a city
council meeting on Thursday –
with many dressed in protective
suits and masks.
In a fiery deputation, Greater
Hornby Residents’ Association
treasurer Ross Houliston called the
consultation process over Waste
Management Ltd’s application to
operate a waste stabilisation and
treatment facility a “dictatorship.”
It followed a deputation from
Prebbleton resident Diane White
on how the plant could impact the
area.
Waste Management has applied
to expand its current site and operate
the toxic waste treatment plant
at 305 Marshs Rd in South Hornby.
In its resource consent application,
it said the plant will treat and
manage items, such as pesticides,
acid, used tyres and other types of
rubbish. • Turn to page 4

Big turnout likely for
Run or walk
for a
good cause
THE 46TH running of the Les
Mills City2Surf will be held on
Sunday and this year’s event
looks set to be one of the biggest
in recent times.
Runners, joggers and walkers
of all fitness levels will take on
either the 14km or 6km options,
both finishing at Ferrymead
Playing Fields.
Event organiser Jon Holmes
says entries are up on last year’s
event which attracted close to
8000 participants.
“It doesn’t matter if you
haven’t trained. Either distance
can be walked. It’s just about
getting out on a Sunday morning,
getting a breath of fresh
air and doing something that
gets the heart pumping,” said
Holmes.
The 14km event starts at 9am
at Pioneer Stadium, and the
6km event starts at 10am at
Hansens Park, all culminating
for a massive finish at Ferrymead
where there will be
plenty of entertainment and
prizes on offer.
Participants will also have free
entry into Ferrymead Historic
Park.
“We’re going fizzy-free again
this year. We’ve also changed
from a free Powerade to a
free Pump at the finish line.
That’s another step in the right
direction for health,” said
Holmes.
This year’s partner charity is
the Prostate Cancer Foundation
of New Zealand. If you wish to

them at the finish line where
you’ll be able to learn a bit more

something that is important to

BOARD PRIORITIES
The city council has provided
Western News with the number of
submissions received during a public
consultation on priorities set out
by community boards. Thirty-two
people responded a have your say
on the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton
Community Board’s priorities.
SUFFRAGETTE MEMORIAL
Clearer signage will not be provided
to recognise the Signage
for Suffragette memorial located
at Denton Park near the Hornby
Cricket Club entranceway. The
decision follows a request from
the Greater Hornby Residents’
Association for better signage. But
city council staff have advised it is
not deemed significant enough for
signage to be installed. However,
it is considering for the site to be
added as a link on the city council’s
women’s suffrage website.
AVONHEAD PARK CONCERNS
Concerns have been raised at
the latest Fendalton-Waimairi-
Harewood Community Board
meeting regarding the amount of
rubbish and dog poo left behind
at Avonhead Park after sports
activities. A fenced dog park was
recommended to address the
dog poo issue. The community

Protest over Prebbleton facility

A Kidney Toxicity Survivor
Over the next 2 months, I thought id write
about two cases that required much input
and care from our entire team of experts. We
treat hundreds of sick patients weekly and
many of them spend weeks in our hospital
being nursed back to full health.
We have so many
special long term
patients that we all
connect with on
different levels but I
cant write them all up
here. We don’t have
favourites because
we love and want to
treat all the animals
that walk through our
doors. I chose these
two patients as they
highlight diseases we commonly see and
treat here and they also show incredible
owner commitment and positivity towards
the whole process. It has to be a team
approach and great communication is key.
I know we have the right team of people,
hospital setup and equipment to do our best
job possible but clients need to be onboard
for, at times, a long, complicated, emotional
journey. You can absolutely guarantee
though we will always do our BEST for your
pet.
TORIN is a young Birman who presented
suddenly unwell 3 months ago - lethargic,
losing weight, vomiting and just not himself.
After a series of testing we deemed Torin
was suffering from
Acute Kidney Failure
due to a suspected
toxicity (possibly
Lilies). His creatinine
kidney enzyme level
was through the roof
, he was dehydrated
and we suspected
a bacterial UTI. He
was immediately
admitted for intensive
care treatment with
intravenous fluids
and supportive care
medications. He spent 2 weeks as a hospital
inpatient receiving Intravenous fluids, food
and medications were fed to him through
a feeding tube in his neck and every day
his devoted owners visited and spent time
cuddling, grooming him and nursing him
back to good health. Once home he was
continually checked many times a week to
make sure he wasn’t deteriorating. Torin
was an incredibly tolerant and an easy to
handle patient which was lucky as he was
jabbed with needles constantly, had oral

medications daily and had every test possible
including radiographs and ultrasounds.
In the end, Torin survived his kidney
failure attack. When we was very unwell
his creatinine reading was greater than
1202umol/L - now
it is normal at
187umol/L. Many
patients wouldn’t
recover from this.
He had incredibly
special owners who
completely trusted
and listened to our
recommendations
and supported us
in his recovery by
visiting often, which was what Torin needed.
Kim encouraged him to eat one bikkie at a
time from her phone and he got to wander
around a room not being caged all day.
Our hospital nursing team was absolutely
A1 fantastic at catering for all his needs,
respecting him, treating him gently and
spending lots of time giving him cuddles and
grooms. We were honest with Torin’s owners
about his prognosis and the time required
for him to start showing improvement. In
this case I believe the feeding tube was the
game changer as we could deliver all his
medications and nutritional requirements
without going near his
mouth and he could be
successfully managed at
home, with the people he
loved and trusted.
We all get super excited
when we get to catch
up with Torin. He’s like a
member of the family and
we all feel proud that we
played a part in getting
him home. Without fail he
urinates in my room on
arrival- not sure what this means exactly, but
then I get cuddles so I’m taking that as a win.

Said Mr Houliston: “You
will notice I am dressed in
black, this is normal when
people are in mourning. The
Waipuna area is in mourning
because city council staff
have shown a total lack of respect
for this area by issuing
consents to put this in here.
“No public consultation
was called and residents in
our area weren’t consulted
denying them their democratic
right to speak out on
whether locals wanted this
or not,” he said.
Resource consent was
granted for the proposed
plant by the city council in
December 2018.
Environment Canterbury
also granted three consents
for its construction and
discharge of stormwater in
March 2019.
The consent application

‘Tracking down birth parents, the right thing to do’
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
ANDREI MOORE could have
been one of tens of thousands
of babies to grow up in an
orphanage in Romania.
It is why the Halswell-Hornby-
Riccarton Community Board
deputy chairman is determined
to give back to the Halswell community
– his home for the last 29
years.
Born in Târgoviste, Romania,
in 1991, it was a time when more
than 10,000 children were abandoned
in orphanages – leaving
them subject to neglect, physical
and sexual abuse and drug use to
control behaviour.
The overpopulation of children
was a result of communist
Romanian president Nicolae
Ceausescu banning contraception
and abortion in 1966 unless
the mother was more than
40-years-old or already had four
children in care.
By 1977, people were taxed
more for being childless.
Mr Moore’s birth parents
Gabriel and Lavinia Toader could
not afford to raise him and he was
due to go to an orphanage.
“It is a totally bizarre scenario
. . . one of my biological brothers
was not so lucky, he grew up in
an orphanage,” he said.
But at two weeks old, the dull
outlook for Mr Moore’s life
drastically changed when he was
“intercepted” from the orphanage
and adopted by Karen and
Richard Moore.
Mr Moore’s father said his
parents “had nothing” and
when they found Andrei he was
“horribly underweight” and “ill”
already at two weeks old.
“I am really lucky to grow
up in a place such as Halswell
instead of remaining in an orphanage.
To be able to represent
a community that has given so
much means a huge amount,”
Mr Moore said.
Although he appreciates more
than most growing up in a quiet,
safe area of New Zealand, he
knew tracking down his birth
parents was the right thing to do.
“It felt like something that
needed to be done eventually,
while they are still alive and
while I am still alive. And the
other reason is my dad has been
nagging me for years.”
In 2017 Mr Moore was chosen
out of hundreds of applications,
to star on ThreeNow’s Lost and
Found – a documentary series
FAMILY:
Andrei Moore
(right) with
his adopted
father Richard
Moore (left),
his birth
father Gabriel
Toader and
his adopted
mother Karen
Moore in
Romania.
which sets about reuniting families,
uncovering cultural identity
and discovering lost family heritage.
“I didn’t do it to introduce two
more parents into my life. It was
more to meet and thank them
and know that was done,” Mr
Moore said.
It was not easy tracking down
his parents but through the television
show Mr Moore not only
met his parents but his sister and
brother.
“I found out I have three sisters
I never knew I had, I never knew
I was an uncle,” Mr Moore said.
All up, Mr Moore has six
brothers and three sisters from
different parents.
While having his personal life
laid out on a national television
show may not have been the
“ideal” way to find his long-lost
parents, Mr Moore knew it may
be the only way.
“When trying to find birth
parents on the other side of the
world that you haven’t been in
contact with over 20 years – you
are quite limited on where to
start and where to go.
Mr Moore hopes others
adopted as children may be
inspired to go on a similar
journey as him and find their
long-lost family.
Since the show re-aired this
month, Mr Moore said he has received
dozens of messages from
people encouraged to go out and
do the same thing.
While he has stayed in touch
with his siblings, he did not have
the same desire to keep in touch
with his parents.
Mr Moore will take over as
community board chairman
from November.

Clothes strangely
appearing
in backyard
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
IF YOU are missing the odd sock,
T-shirt or scrunchie – the culprit
could be a sneaky cat on the prowl
in South Hornby.
For the last three months,
mostly children’s clothing has
been mysteriously appearing
in Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton
Community Board member Mark
Peter’s backyard.
The most recent items to appear
in his backyard in Glenora Pl was
a scrunchie and sock last week.
The items are most likely
coming from the Blankney St,
Witham St and Glenora Pl area,
Mr Peters said.
Although he doesn’t have any
solid proof, he suspects the puzzling
overnight appearances of
odd clothing on his property is a
cat, due to his yard being a “cat
thoroughfare.”
Mr Peters said he has only one
elderly cat and consistently has
about four to five cats wandering
through his yard from the neighbour’s
property.
He is thinking of installing a
night camera to get solid proof.
If you have lost a clothing
item at in the South Hornby
area, check the Greater Hornby
Residents’ Association on its

Decision on multi-storey house review soon
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A DECISION is likely to be
made this week on whether
a review is needed over the
construction of a large multistorey
house on a residential
street in Riccarton.
Commissioner David
Mountfort is expected to make
a decision early next week over
whether a section 128 review is
required of a new house constructed
on 36 Rata St.
The potential review is to consider
whether there are any inaccuracies
in the original resource
consent lodged in 2016 for the
house to be built before a subsequent
application was given the
green-light to go-ahead by the
city council in 2018.
City council’s head of resource
consents John Higgins said Mr
Mountfort is considering a city
council officer report alongside
additional information received
from the consent holder, three
adjacent neighbours and the city
council.
He said the commissioner
should be in a position to make
a decision on whether a section
128 review is required by early
next week.
The city council officer report
prepared by resource consent
principal adviser Hermione
Blair states she is of the opinion
that potential inaccuracies have

this week on whether a review is needed over the construction

been identified in the original
resource consent and a section
128 review can be invoked.
In Ms Blair’s opinion the
potential errors of most significance
are the depiction of the
northern recession plane which
if drawn correctly results in
breaching the recession plane
and the 2016 dwelling is shown
incorrectly on a sun study plan.
Information supplied to Mr
Mountfort following the city
council’s section 128 recommendation
report showed a city
council architect found while
completing shading diagrams
for the house in 2018, the 2016
plans incorrectly showed the
floor level of the house in relation
to ground level.
This means the plans showed
the house about 350mm lower
on the elevations than it actually
has been built.
This is why the 2016 house
WESTERN NEWS
prepared for the 2018 application
shows the house sitting higher
with a larger recession plane
breach than approved.
Mr Higgins said if a review is
necessary, Mr Mountfort will
either decide if any issues can be
addressed through the conditions
of the consent or if it needs
to be cancelled.
“In the latter case (the consent
is cancelled), a new resource
consent would be required,” he
said.
Last year, city council received
complaints from four nearby
properties along with concerns
raised from the Riccarton
Bush-Kilmarnock Residents’
Association and the Halswell-
Hornby-Riccarton Community
Board.
The large house is being constructed
for carpet retailer and
interior design service Nextdore
director Michael Dore.
Last year, the city council
confirmed the house breached
multiple variations for a
residential zone – including
it did not meet the required
finished floor level and breached
recession planes.
But it also argued Mr Dore is
able to use the previous on-site
townhouse coverage and consent
as a baseline.
Mr Dore did not wish to
comment.

Street work ‘waste of money’
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
IN THE 25 years Graham Tait
has lived in Ilam, he has never
had a problem walking on his
street.
Having “hardly a crack in it”,
the 83-year-old can take his dog
for daily walks along Ryeland
Ave with ease.
But the city council disagrees
and has decided to tear up and
completely renew his street.
Work began recently to
replace the existing footpath,
removing the top surface, level
the formation below and relay a
new top surface.
In reply, Mr Tait has complained
to the city council
calling the $60,000 project a
“complete waste of money”
and would be better off spent
elsewhere.
He said residents were only
notified the Friday before the
work began.
Mr Tait said the money would
be better off spent at Tuirau
Place which has big tree roots in
the ground or the intersection
of Ilam and Maidstone Rd.
But city council’s city streets
maintenance manager Mark
Pinner saying as per its own
assessment, the road clearly has
cracks.
UNHAPPY: Ryeland Ave resident Graham Tait said the city council’s $60,000 project to renew
his street is a “complete waste of money.”

But Mr Tait said: “I am 83 I
can’t fall over in the street, it is
ridiculous,” he said.
The footpaths were last replaced
23 years ago.
Mr Tait said he was unlikely
to get much sympathy from his
neighbours or his wife.
“My wife said stop
complaining, it will be nice to
have a nice street to walk on,”
Mr Tait said.
Mr Pinner said the city
council aims to be proactive
in maintaining roads to avoid
future deterioration.
But he said the city council
can always take on feedback
and work to improve its
determination of sites to best
serve the public as a whole.
Residents anxious
over looming
quarry decision
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
TEMPLETON AND Weedons
residents anxiously waiting to hear
if a quarry in their area will go
ahead can expect to hear a decision
over the next month.
The hearing for Fulton Hogan’s
proposal to open a quarry between
Dawsons, Jones, Maddisons and
Curraghs Rd closed on Wednesday.
An Environment Canterbury
spokeswoman said due to the
large-scale proposal, complex lay and
expert evidence, commissioners have
doubled the time frame to make a
decision to 30 working days.
Under section 115 of the Resource
Management Act, the independent
hearings panel chaired by
Rob van Voorthuysen, would have
15 working days to make a decision.
It will now be released on or
before April 24.
Mr van Voorthuysen said it has
doubled the 15 working day period
having considered the interests of
Fulton Hogan and the community.
Templeton Residents’ Association
treasurer Jolene Eagar said at

Supermarket transformed
AFTER AN 18-month
refurbishment, New World
Fendalton has emerged
transformed with the completion
of the supermarket’s extensive
revamp.
The upgrade has seen a complete
re-design of the building,
with the supermarket’s size
increasing by 500 sq m. The
number of checkouts has boosted
along with an expanded range of
products on offer.
Brothers James and Richard
Turner are continuing their
family legacy as third-generation
owners and operators of New
World Fendalton.
Said James: “It really has been a
team effort, and to see our community
enjoy the refurbished
store has been incredibly rewarding.
It brings together the hard
work of so many people.”
Other new features include an
ecostore refillery and the installation
of a new butchery counter.
In addition, energy-saving refrigeration
and a daylight harvesting
system to reduce electricity use
has been installed in a bid to reduce
the store’s carbon footprint.
New World Fendalton has
a strong family history. The
brothers’ great grandfather
Walter Turner immigrated to
Christchurch when he was just
14-years-old and secured a job in
a local grocery store, and eventually
owned the store in 1936.
Walter’s son, Jim, affectionately
known as ‘Gentleman Jim,’ took
over the store in 1961 and had
owned it up until his death in 2016.
Originally part of Fendalton Mall,
the Memorial Ave store had been
owned by the Turner family since
its opening and up until 1970, it
was named Turners Grocers.
Richard believed their greatgrandfather
Walter and grandfather
Jim would be proud of
the supermarket’s evolution and
LEGACY: Richard (left) and

continuation of its characteristic
family business charm.
Said Richard: “Supermarkets
have changed a lot since the business
opened back in the 1930s. I
think changes we have made will
ensure we continue to provide
a top-class shopping experience
for decades to come, just like our
grandfathers did before us.”
James and Richard are
carrying on the family legacy,
continuing to be a mainstay
of New Zealand’s grocery
collective, but also an
integral cornerstone of the
local western Christchurch
community.
Empowering women
A HAIRDRESSING salon in
Hornby has partnered with a
charitable organisation to help
provide women the confidence
to shape their own financial
futures.
Just Cuts New Zealand
launched a partnership with
Dress for Success Christchurch
to mark International Women’s
Day last Sunday.
It means Dress for Success clients
can now redeem their style
cut for $20 which normally cost
$32 when presenting a partnership
voucher at any Just Cuts in
the country.
The launch was held last Sunday,
outside the Just Cuts salon
at The Hub Hornby.
Dress for Success aims to
provide appropriate clothing,
support and career development
tools to help women thrive in
work and life - it has supported
more than 4500 women since
2003.
Just Cuts franchise owner
Angela Turner said Just Cuts
Hornby is proud to be responsible
for this initiative which will
be rolled out nationwide.
“A great Style Cut is so important
for self-esteem and confidence,
and this voucher for Dress
for Success clients will be the
icing on the cake, or should I say,
their crowning glory,” she said.
Mrs Turner’s husband and
hairdresser Michael Turner said
INITIATIVE: Dress for

if the initiative goes well in New
Zealand, the next step is to take
it across to Australia.
Mr Turner said they had
confirmation from Just Cuts
founder, chief executive and
franchiser Denis McFadden who
wants to push for it as his end.
There are more than 200 Just
Cuts hair salons in Australia.
The event organised by The
Hub Hornby shopping centre
which has also teamed up with
Dress for Success will see quality
lightly worn clothing and accessories
donated to help women
enter the workforce.
Customers can take items
into sign written lockers at
participating retailers with the
additional option of including
an inspirational note for the
recipient.

Age no barrier for
Burnside tennis group
• By Jacob Page
A GROUP of octogenarians
who have spent more than 440
years combined playing time at
the Burnside Park Tennis Club
have no interest in giving the
game away any time soon.
The 15 men and women are
all aged between 80 and 88 and
are believed to be the oldest
regular tennis playing group of
their kind in Christchurch. They
meet every Tuesday and Thursday
morning all year round.
They have spent a combined
443 years playing at the club.
The group play about 50 other
senior players over the age of 50.
Club spokesperson Allanah
James said the group were an inspiration
to everyone on court.
“I play with them and against
them and they run me round.
“I’ve just retired and I’m in my
early 60s and they’re all just so
inspirational,” she said.
“They are what I want to be
like when I am their age.
“It’s an endorsement for staying
active later in life.
Mrs James said the group
played 90min of tennis but most
of them turned up for a warmup
30min before matches start.
“They are so precise with their
shots, she said. “They know
where to place the ball to make
you run around that’s for sure.
“We felt it was time to celebrate
them for their continued
contribution to our club.”
One of the group, Monica
Devine, is the grandmother of
current White Ferns cricketer
Sophie Devine.
The two oldest are married
couple Peter, 88, and Adrienne
Rowe, 87.
Peter has been playing at the
club for 18 years and Adrienne
has been a club member for 34
years.
The longest playing member
of the over 80s is Ellen Harris
who has been playing at
Burnside for 55 years.
Stedman on track
for Tokyo Paralympics
• By Jacob Page
FORMER Middleton Grange
student and paralympic sprinter,
William Stedman has continued
his progression towards the
Tokyo Paralympics with three
strong results at the national
track and field championships at
Nga Puna Wai.
The 20-year-old won the senior
men’s long jump with a best effort
of 5.68m and then won the
400m in 55.22sec and the 200m
in 25.21 sec.
The Hillmorton resident was
the youngest member of the New
Zealand Paralympic team four
years ago at just 16.
Stedman, who suffers from
cerebral palsy, won bronze medals
in the T36 400m and 800m
events.
Stedman said in spite of strong
winds, he was happy with his
efforts, particularly in the long
jump.
That’s the best I’ve gone in the
long jump,” he said.
Stedman is studying engineering
part-time at the University
of Canterbury and believes it has
been easier to train for his second
Paralympic campaign than his
first.
“University is just a lot more
flexible than high school which

has really allowed me to focus on
my goals as an athlete.
He said there was more pressure
on him ahead of Tokyo
because he was such an unknown
four years ago but he believes he
is capable of handling the added
scrutiny.
“Last time nobody was really
expecting me to come away with
any (medals) and I did so this
time there may be more pressure
but I feel prepared,” he said.

held from August 25 to
September 6.

How to protect yourself and others
What is COVID-19?
COVID-19 is a new illness that can affect your lungs and airways. It’s caused by a virus
called coronavirus. There are simple steps you can take to protect you and your family/whānau.
Symptoms of COVID-19
The symptoms of COVID-19 are:
•a cough
•a high temperature (at least 38°C)
•shortness of breath.
These symptoms do not necessarily mean you have COVID-19. The symptoms are
similar to other illnesses that are much more common, such as cold and flu.
However, infections with mild symptoms such as cold-like symptoms or no symptoms
are likely, but it’s not known how common this is.
How to protect yourself and others
•Cough or sneeze into your elbow or by covering your mouth and nose with tissues.
•Put used tissues in the bin or a bag immediately.
•Wash your hands with soap and water often.
•Try to avoid close contact with people who are unwell.
•Don’t touch your eyes, nose or mouth if your hands are not clean.
•Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces and objects, such as doorknobs.
•Stay home if you feel unwell and call Healthline on 0800 358 5453.

Joint pain: Do I have arthritis or
could it be mainly my muscles?
The team at Physical Sense in Sydenham sees clients with
a range of symptoms but many of their middle-aged and
senior clients visit complaining of pain in one of their joints.
Physiotherapist Ietje van Stolk suggests
that a major part of the pain could be due
to muscle pain rather than simply arthritis.
“Even if an x-ray shows arthritis, the reason
for the pain may be the muscles around
the joint,” she explains. The images show
how a muscle knot (the crosses) in a back
muscle can give hip pain (aches and pain
are the red areas in the drawings), a knot
in a muscle on the back of the shoulder
blade can give a deep pain in the front of
the shoulder and a muscle knot all the way
near the groin can give an ache in the knee
(especially at night in bed).
Ietje recalls one case where an 89 year
old client with severe arthritis who walked
with a stick, told her, “I will end up in
a wheelchair, I cannot put any weight
through my right leg due to pain in my hip
and buttock”. “Within 4 treatments, she
was walking with her stick but without the
severe pain,” says Ietje. “The arthritis was
one of the factors that made her muscles
spasm but the other was that older people
move less and the flexed position the hip
is in when we sit is particularly bad for
the hip.” Ietje is happy with the fact that
although the client was 89 and could have
been “given up on” or told to live with the
pain, she made a difference to her health
and wellbeing.
The same lack of movement can be the
reason for your knee pain or your shoulder
pain and the same few treatments could
make a huge difference for you.
At Physical Sense, hands-on techniques
(massage and triggerpoint deactivation
techniques) are used to release the muscles.
The client also gets a home exercise
program designed to mobilize and stretch
the joint, strengthen the important core
muscles and increase general strength and
balance. They teach a movement sequence
SHOULDER
PAIN
KNEE PAIN
that stretches the joint in all directions
whilst the client is able to lie safely on their
bed, perfect for older or less mobile clients.
In many cases having the muscles
released and being taught how to maintain
it, is enough to stay on top of the problem.
If severe arthritis is the underlying cause,
HIP PAIN
(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt)
some maintenance therapy may be
necessary, but that is often more affordable
and, for older patients, better tolerated
than surgery. After only one treatment
you should know that it will work for you.
Call them before the end of March and
save $20.00 on that treatment.
Physical Sense Gym and Physio is located at 300 Colombo Street, Sydenham. The Blue Line Bus stops in front of the door
and there is ample parking. To enquire about joint pain treatment, phone 377-2577 or visit www.triggerpoints.co.nz

FOCUS ON HEALTH
Grape seeds shown to have
remarkable health benefits!
According to researchers grape seeds
may hold the potential to treat and
prevent many devastating disorders.
The seeds have been found to contain
many powerful antioxidant such as
resveratrol, catechins, epicatechins,
proanthocyanadins and anthocyanins
as well as other nutrients that have
been shown to support the natural
healing process and even slow the
aging process.
Grape Seed Extract (GSE) has
been shown to reduce inflammation
and pain, increase cellular energy,
protect protein structures and
increase collagen production. The
powerful antioxidants in GSE can
tone and strengthen the blood
vessels, improve blood flow making
it valuable for circulatory disorders
of all kinds, including varicose veins,
haemorrhoids, hardening of the
arteries and impaired blood flow to
the brain. It is excellent for most skin
conditions because of the increase
of blood flow to the skin tissue thru
allowing more nutrients to the tissue
cells and better waste removal from
the cells. As well as this it supports
collagen production. For these reasons
many people report the skin looks
more healthy, smoother and with
better elasticity when using GSE.
GSE offers a natural alternative
for many people with hypertension
(High Blood Pressure). Higher than
normal blood pressure puts more
stress on organs and can lead to
atherosclerosis (hardening of the
arteries) and therefore increased risk
of heart disease (The heart has to
work harder to supply blood around
the body and may become enlarged
and eventually fail) and strokes.
Recent analysis of 16 randomized
studies on people with elevated blood
pressure found GSE to significantly
lower both systolic and diastolic blood
pressure but had no effect on people
with normal blood pressure. Animal
studies have shown GSE to improve
heart function, reduce damage caused
by heart attacks and prevent the
formation of foam cells that play a role
in the formation of arterial plaque.
A growing number of studies show
that GSE has powerful anticancer
properties in both the prevention and
treatment of many types of cancer.
Studies show arthritis of every type
may be greatly improved by GSE. GSE
also helps protect the body against
damage caused by diabetes while
helping balance blood sugar levels.
Another area GSE is proving highly
beneficial is the brain. It has been
shown to protect brain cells while
stimulating the formation of healthy
new brain cells. It may prove vital in
the treatment of brain disorders like
Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease.
There are numerous studies on
GSE that show it can help support
our good health and prevent many
degenerative diseases. Further
detailed information is available
from the Natural Health Advisers at
Marshall’s Health & Natural Therapy,
101 Seaview Road, New Brighton and
PH: 388-5757. They are always happy
to help!
Your Smile is your business card
A smile is one of the first facial features to
catch a person’s eye. How does your smile
stand up? What colour are your teeth? Are
they off colour, tarnished or yellowing? Many
people refrain from smiling because of teeth
discolouration.
Sparklewhite to the rescue. Their whitening
system is backed by satisfied customers,
testimonials, likes and statistics to prove their
simple, one to two time whitening program
accomplishes the goal.
Don’t be embarrassed by your teeth. Everyone
knows the purpose of teeth is to mechanically
break down food items by cutting and
crushing them in order to prepare them to
be swallowed. Your teeth are the first point of
entry for beverages as well.
Are you aware coffee and smoking tarnish and
yellow tooth enamel. However, the two biggest
culprits of yellowing teeth are none-other than
tea and red wine, berries & coloured veges. Go
figure.
Tea & Red Wine stains occur when tannins
in both of them build up in the tooth enamel.
Tannins are organic substances found in
plants. Tannins in tea and wine can lead to
stains on teeth. In fact, some black teas can
even cause more tooth discoloration than even
black coffee!
There is an answer. Teeth whitening, but not
just any teeth whitening system will work. The
kind at the supermarket or the ones which the
pharmacies stock, are not strong enough to
give the quick results consumers are looking
for as they have a restriction on the strength of
peroxide sold over the counter.
Going to the dentist is more expensive,
however, there is a Certified tooth whitening
ADVERTORIAL
specialist in Christchurch, Sparklewhite Teeth,
who offer Cosmetic Teeth Whitening. Anyone
age sixteen and up can have the procedure
done. They also do couples whitening.
Whether a couple or friends, you can have
your session at the same time, in different
rooms of course, and get a discounted rate for
two!
The best part of the success rate of this service
is it only takes one or two times depending
on the assessment. Simple. Then you can
smile with confidence and never have to be
embarrassed by your smile again. Vouchers
available.

Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz
WESTERN NEWS
Elegant and stylish. Built for maximum
sun with panoramic views over Lyttelton
Harbour and surrounding hills across to
Quail Island.
Stroll up the driveway, past single garage
and carport up a few steps across a deck
onto the first level. Here you find three
double bedrooms. The master bedroom
has direct access to a lovely bathroom
containing a shower, king-size bath and
double his-and -hers sinks. A separate
toilet and laundry are also located on this
floor. Continue up the central stairway
onto the second level landing. Turn left to
the living, right to kitchen or diagonal to
access the rear of the property.
The private landscaped courtyard
provides all day living, ideal for that
morning cuppa to evening BBQs. Take
time to breath in the fragrant Jasmine
that adorns the trellis.
The light-filled open-plan kitchen/
dining area is the heart of the home. Here
stunning picture-perfect sea views from
the full-length dining room window
combine with high ceilings making for
that feeling of spaciousness.
Flow continues through to the living area
where a balcony off this room provides
additional living or entertaining space.
Stairs continue through the centre of the
house to a cleverly designed mezzanine
floor. Again, be spoilt with superb views
from the dining room windows. Having
its own shower and toilet makes this a
super fourth double bedroom, but if you
want space, light, and a “special spot” in
which to work from home, then this is just
the space. This is one of those properties
where careful planning, quality and
convenience for modern day living will
have you want to live here.
Lyttelton has become a sought-after
dynamic Port community with much to
offer from the Saturday market, cafes,
restaurants, to great entertainment. A

HOME & HEATING
Ground moisture barrier
under low sub-floor
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, ground moisture barrier.
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.
While insulation is important, it has been
recognised that it is dampness that is the real
villain in the house. The new Healthy Homes
Standards introduced by the government
effective from the 1st July 2019 now has
a requirement to install ground moisture
barriers, a key element in the armory to fight
moisture in the home.
Dr Larry Bellamy BE (hons) PhD in a
report dated 1988: Foam Concrete Under
Timber Floors: An Energy Analysis assessed
the effects of placing Foam Concrete over
damp soil and had this to say: Condensation
on the underside of a timber floor can occur
where the floor is suspended over damp
ground and the inside air temperature falls
close to the crawl space air temperature.
Much energy is required to vaporize moisture
that penetrates the structure. By avoiding
underfloor condensation, foam concrete can
reduce floor heat losses by up to 90%.
• Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd can in most
cases, install a Ground Moisture Barrier
under the suspended wooden floor of your
home, even when there is no crawl space.
• BRANZ Appraised; Appraisal Number 961
• Members of the Insulation Association of
New Zealand.
• We offer a free measure and quote in the
Canterbury region with no obligations.
• Assessments can be made in all other
regions by arrangement.
Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete
Ltd now for your free, no obligation quote
and complimentary appraisal of your
underfloor ground moisture barrier needs.

ATTACK RISING DAMP
What makes a great
heat transfer system?
There are a number of Heat Transfer
systems on the market. Smooth-Air
ventilation specialists offer a range of HTU
Heat Transfer Units with carefully selected
components to optimise the system:
They use insulated duct to transfer the
heated air with as little heat loss as possible.
The fan moves sufficient air for the distance
and number of rooms, without being noisy.
The diffusers send the heat to the floor, not to
skim the across the ceilings. All components
are good quality - designed to operate for
years without problems.
Smooth-Air’s HTUs come in a range of
options: One to four rooms, with or without
thermostat and with a choice of grilles
and diffusers. HTUs improve energy
efficiency in your house, as you are
using excess heat. They have low power
consumption - only 80watts for the three
room system. Circulating air through
the house also reduces the risk of damp.
You can also choose the HTU version
with downjet diffusers, which throw the
warm air downwards to the floor. These
downjet diffusers can also be adjusted to
regulate which room receives the most
warm air.
An average size living room requires
2-4 kw of heating, yet appliances such as
log burners generate heat in the region
of 10 -20kw. This leaves an excess of 8
-16kw of heat which sits at high level
in the heated room, usually above door
level.
Heat transfer units work best where
very hot air has ‘stratified’ into a layer
near the ceiling. So heat pumps, which
circulate warm air around the room with
no layering, are not suitable as a heat source
by themselves. However, if you have both
log burner and a heat pump, heat transfer
systems with thermostat can work very well:
The heat pump stops operating once the heat
from the fire has heated the room, and the
heat transfer kicks in above this point, once
there is a layer of hot air at the ceiling.
Contact Smooth-Air on 0800 SMOOTH
(0800 766 684) to ask how they can help
you with your Heat Transfer, as well as any
other ventilation requirements.
