Owners worried about 

future of Airbnb in city 

• By Bea Gooding 

CHRISTCHURCH Airbnb 

owners are concerned about 

the future of home-share 

accommodation as the city 

council mulls changes to its 

rules for short-term 

accommodation. 

Proposed changes to the City 

Plan would allow whole unit 

listings in some areas but not 

others, and would not allow listings 

in multi-unit dwellings or 

on rear sections. 

Another option on the table 

enables listings up to a specified 

number of days, such as 60, 90 or 

120 days per year. 

City council head of planning 

and strategic transport David 

Griffiths confirmed a council 

committee would ultimately 

decide what to do with the proposals 

next month. 

But Christchurch Holiday 

Homes director Sue Harrison, 

who manages homes in Bishopdale, 

Papanui and Bryndwr said 

there were fears a change would 

“put big hotel profits ahead of 

what’s best for the 

city.” 

“For many of us, these rules 

would mean putting away our 

welcome mats for good. 

“We can’t pretend it hasn’t 

been hurtful at times when our 

intentions have been wilfully 

misrepresented. We’re members 

of this community and we care 

very deeply about Christchurch,” 

Harrison said. 

In residential zones, singleroom 

listings with the owner 

present were permitted as “bed 

and breakfasts” under the District 

Plan rules, allowing up to 

six guests to stay a maximum of 

90 days.

of the central city, unhosted

Upgrades for play spaces 

• By Louis Day 

ALMOST HALF a million 

dollars is set to be spent on 

recreational areas across the area. 

Bishopdale Park skate park, 

Armitage Reserve play space and 

Annandale Park play space will 

all receive renewals after their 

landscape plans were approved 

last week. 

This will 

see the city 

council pour 

a total of 

$480,000 into 

improving the 

standard of 

these facilities. 

David 

Cartwright 

The majority 

of the money, 

$340,000, will 

be put towards Bishopdale Park’s 

skate park as it nears the end of 

its lifespan. 

The newly-approved design 

includes a 1.65m hipped quarter 

pipe with a corner pocket, several 

hips with a banked extension, 

a double-sided pole jam, and a 

mini ramp, with work on the site 

set to commence in February. 

Both the pyramid and round 

rail elements will also be made 

higher. 

Installed in the late 1980s, it 

was originally an asphalt roller 

skating area, with the addition of 

skate park elements in 1996. 

Design elements for the new 

skate area follow community 

feedback at the Bishopdale Skate 

Jam, along with wider consultation. 

The majority of submissions 

on the upgrade supported the 

improvements. 

Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood 

Community Board chairman 

David Cartwright believed 

that the mix of new elements 

will appeal to beginners and 

intermediate-level skaters. 

“Skateboarding is firmly 

entrenched in the suburban 

landscape and we need to keep 

pace with the demand for fresh 

elements and new challenges,” 

he said. 

“Much like the skaters, we 

need to remain agile and bring 

renewed energy to a popular 

public space. 

“The present site is ripe for 

renewal – and a quarter pipe.” 

Meanwhile, the play space on 

Armitage Reserve will also see 

$78,000 put towards it. 

This money will go towards 

a “space shuttle spinner,” three 

new swings, retention of the 

existing large slide, a picnic table 

and a new asphalt footpath. 

Community feedback showed 

a strong support for more swings 

to be included in the landscape

plan as well as deep concern over 

the proposal to remove the existing 

slide, which the city council 

decided to leave in its place in the 

end. 

The city council is aiming to 

begin work on the site late this 

year. 

A further $62,000 is also set to 

be spent on the play space within 

Annandale Park. 

Work on the park, which the 

city council is again hoping to 

begin towards the end of this 

year, will include the installation 

of two swings, a mulberry bush 

carousel, a “dinosaur rocker,” 

a slide, three new trees and a 

picnic table. 

Sports gear 

initiative 

spreads 

• By Bea Gooding 

A SPORTS gear initiative has 

been experiencing high demand 

since its establishment four years 

ago, and now it is now spreading 

further afield. 

The Give Gear Get Great initiative 

collects donations of unused 

sports equipment and shoes, 

which is then recycled back into 

the community at local events or 

through a collection system. 

It originally began in the 

Spreydon-Cashmere Community 

Board area in 2016, eventually 

spreading to the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton 

area, and were now 

looking to set up collection points 

in the Papanui-Innes area to benefit 

more families. 

Spreydon-Cashmere Community 

Board chairwoman Karolin 

Potter was the mastermind 

behind the idea and said demand 

had skyrocketed since it started. 

“We can’t meet demand, but 

we’ve been delighted by the success 

of Give Gear Get Great,” she said. 

Ten wheelie bins to collect the 

gear were ready to be rolled out 

into the area once the city council 

finalised with community groups 

who were interested in delivering 

this initiative and hosting a bin.

‘Aunties’ helping vulnerable women 

Neighbourhood 

groups, organisations 

and charities play 

an important part in 

keeping communities 

supported in a 

number of ways. The 

Christchurch Aunties 

chairwoman Heather 

Milne speaks to Bea 

Gooding about how 

they help vulnerable 

women and children 

experiencing family 

violence 

Walk me through what 

services The Christchurch 

Aunties provide and how it 

came to be what it is today. 

We’re a network of 4000 

people who provide practical 

support and donations for 

women and children in 

Christchurch, Selwyn District, 

and Waimakariri District, who 

have experienced family violence 

and vulnerability. We work with 

staff at about 11 organisations 

(such as women’s refuges), who 

tell us what they need for their 

clients, then we get it to them by 

mobilising our network. 

We regularly provide toiletries,

assistance for women and children experiencing family violence. PHOTO: GEOFF SLOAN 

security items and emergency 

trips funding. When women 

are setting up new homes after 

relocating, we provide new or 

quality second-hand furniture 

and bedding. Sourcing and 

donating baby gear is another 

area that we excel at. 

In addition to those regular 

requests, we sometimes receive 

client-specific donation requests 

such as gadgets and weighted 

blankets for children with 

behavioural or communication 

issues, quality sports gear, 

birthday cakes, and vouchers for 

local attractions. 

The Christchurch Aunties 

started in 2014 when Jackie Clark 

in Auckland (who founded The 

Aunties movement up there) put 

me in touch with a woman who 

was moving to Christchurch for 

her safety. 

It became apparent that 

there were many people in the 

community who wanted to 

help, and that there was a way 

to harness social media and 

business connections to get 

results. This was a time when I 

also realised how much learning 

I had (and still have) to do about 

family violence, discrimination, 

and unconscious bias. 

In 2017, I gathered a group 

of people around me to be the 

board of The Christchurch 

Aunties. We set the wheels in 

motion with systems, policy, 

communications, and finally, 

charitable status earlier this year. 

It’s been an amazing journey so 

far. 

What does it mean to be an 

“auntie?” 

Anyone, anywhere can be 

an “auntie.’’ The only rules are 

that you need to be kind, and 

not judge people. That last bit 

is striking because it’s human 

nature to judge – we’re all guilty 

of it. We have Christchurch 

Aunties who regularly donate 

toiletries and new bedding. 

Others have set up regular 

payments into our account. We 

have a team of volunteers who 

get hands-on and help us move 

things, do administrative tasks, 

mend furniture, test electrical 

gear, and tidy our storage. 

There are also hundreds of 

Christchurch aunties who share 

information about us and get 

us in touch with other donors. 

All of this support is part of the 

giant jigsaw that makes it so 

successful.



and children experiencing violence 

Why is an organisation like 

The Christchurch Aunties 

important for the community? 

The immediate importance 

of The Christchurch Aunties 

is that we relieve the mental 

load for women and children 

experiencing family violence 

and vulnerability, and we also 

relieve the mental load of the staff 

who are caring for them. Our 

donations go towards keeping 

people warm, safe, and feeling 

valued. 

Another important role 

we have is to cultivate the 

nurturing and generous side 

of the Canterbury community 

that we’ve seen so much of in 

the past 10 years. People really 

want to help and learn, but don’t 

always know how. So we gently 

introduce people to the concept 

of volunteering and support, and 

how to donate effectively so that 

recipients feel respected. 

What are the major issues 

currently impacting those who 

you serve, and why? 

The issue that we’ve seen 

recently impacting families is 

Covid-19 and the lockdown. 

This situation became like a 

pressure cooker of social isolation 

and financial stress for many. 

Children were home from school 

and saw the violence happening. 

Solo parents struggled to get 

supplies as they couldn’t leave 

their children at home, but 

also couldn’t take them to the 

supermarket. 

In the days before level 4, 

we frantically gave out all our 

supplies of toiletries, activities, 

and fuel/supermarket vouchers 

to organisations – not knowing 

when we’d be able to supply them 

again. 

Luckily we were granted 

essential status, but the increased 

demand for basic donations 

of toiletries, security gear, and 

vouchers have continued. 

Canterbury has functioned 

with a post-traumatic stress 

disorder faultline running under 

us since 2010. So although the 

lockdown was the catalyst for 

recent spikes in family violence, 

there has been an increase for 

some time. 

The social workers and support 

staff who we see working with 

the clients and families have dealt 

with the increase for so long, 

that I think it’s become the ‘new 

normal’. They do an incredible 

job.

Milne deliver

What are some 

misconceptions about family 

violence and vulnerability that 

the average person may not 

know about? Why is this the 

case? 

There is a very common 

assumption that family violence 

happens to people in other 

neighbourhoods and to other 

families. A very mistaken belief 

is that family violence is only 

experienced by people who are 

struggling financially. For a long 

time, family violence wasn’t 

talked about in New Zealand, so 

I think a lot of misconceptions 

sprung up simply from ignorance 

– and humans are reluctant to 

change their thought patterns. 

There are Christchurch aunties 

out there who have experienced 

violence and vulnerability in 

the past or have supported their 

family or friends through the 

system. These people are from 

diverse backgrounds and cultures. 

They are from all walks of life. 

Moving forward, how can 

organisations and society better 

support those experiencing 

these hardships and the 

reduction of harm within 

homes? And why? 

As a society, we can’t make 

any real impact until we stop 

and listen. I urge people to get 

educated on family violence and 

poverty in New Zealand. Be 

open-minded and learn about 

your unconscious bias. Listen to 

those who speak from experience 

– they know more than you 

do on this subject. It’s okay to 

change the way you think about 

things. Your behaviour with 

these simple steps will inspire 

others, including children. Know 

who to contact for advice and 

support when someone you know 

comes to you angry or hurt. 

There are a whole lot of great 

people out there who can help.

Antarctic spirit encapsulated 

A GROUP of year 7 and 8 pupils 

from Papanui’s St Joseph’s 

School have become the first 

to graduate from the inaugural 

International Antarctic Centre 

online learning programme. 

A number of pupils gained an 

excellence for their efforts in the 

10-week academy. 

Said International Antarctic 

Centre education manager Miranda 

Satterthwaite: “We were 

impressed with how thoroughly 

the students adapted to receiving 

online instruction and how 

they could apply their learning 

– from building Antarctic-bases 

to understanding the intention 

behind the Antarctic Treaty to 

the increasing issue of tourism – 

to the in-centre exploration that 

marked the final assessment. 

“Lockdown was a test for 

us all, but the students of St 

Joseph’s truly handled their 

challenge with the mettle of 

Antarctic explorers before 

them.” 

St Joseph’s School deputy 

principal Marietjie Verweij said 

they considered themselves 

very lucky that the pupils had 

been set-up for digital learning 

and were ready to discover and 

extend their learning just as the 

Antarctic Academy programme 

was ready to launch. 

ADVENTURE: (From left) – International Antarctic Centre’s 

education manager Miranda Satterthwaite and Hagglund 

driver Phurenje Sherpa with pupils Claudia Vivian, 

Molly Maynard, George Robertson, Ryan Cooke and Carter 

Devlin, and St Joseph’s School deputy principal Marietjie 

Verweij. 

“We just couldn’t believe how 

it all worked out, given how 

unexpected and how disruptive 

the nine weeks could otherwise 

have been for our students and 

teachers,” she said. 

The school had a special 

assembly held to honour the 

academy graduates and to 

welcome the start of the school’s 

contribution to Wild in Art’s 

community sculpture and charity 

programme raising funds 

for Cholmondeley Children’s 

Home. 

Satterthwaite said the International 

Antarctic Centre’s 

academy is enjoying strong 

demand for its in-centre and 

online programmes and has 

plans to further this as schools 

understand the significance of 

Antarctic studies and how it 

meets curriculum and social 

needs so thoroughly. 

“Science, geography, history, 

biology, engineering are all met, 

but one thing that undeniably 

provides the most positive 

impact on well-being is meeting 

one of our real-life rescue 

penguins.” 

Proposals not supported 

• From page 1 

Policies to restrict non-residential 

activities in residential zones 

made consent more difficult to 

obtain. 

Said Harrison: “We don’t support 

discriminating between 

hosted and unhosted short-term 

rentals. Whether a host is present 

or not doesn’t form a sound basis 

for regulation as there’s many 

variables involved to police this.” 

Airbnb owners did not support 

the proposals due to the growing 

need for self-catering homes for 

groups and families that many 

motels, hotels and hostels did not 

cater for. 

They have outlined their 

concerns to community boards 

across the city. 

They favoured the option 

which removed restrictions on 

whole unit listings and treated 

home-share accommodation as a 

residential activity. 

“This option allows for 

better regulation by registering 

homes. All other options leave 

you with an impossible compliance 

issue. 

“If you restrict self-contained 

homes, visitors will limit their 

time in Christchurch,” Harrison 

said. 

They supported a nationwide 

approach to regulations which 

did not “geographically distort 

the market,” and a mandatory 

code of conduct for owners, 

managers and guests enforceable 

under a three-strike rule. 

AirDNA data shows Christchurch 

hosts earned about $50 

million between August 2018 and 

2019. 

It is estimated about 250,000 

guests were hosted last year. 

Griffiths said some regulations 

could be approached from a 

nationwide perspective. 

“A nationwide code of practice 

would be possible for short-term 

accommodation, but would require 

agreement of all listing platform 

providers, council and other 

regulatory agencies,” he said. 

“However, a nationwide code 

of practice could not be the only 

regulatory mechanism in spite of 

this being a preferred option. City 

council has responsibilities under 

the Building Act, Resource Management 

Act and other legislation 

that the code may not address.’’ 

The Government could also 

issue objectives and policies to 

ensure a consistent approach to 

managing the issue, such as the 

use of land and its effects that all 

councils must enforce. 

The city council will present

Mouth-watering gourmet 

pie maker & baker 

Owner and pie maker extraordinaire, Delwyn Lanauze, spent years 

in the Chatham Islands which brought out her resourcefulness 

and stimulated the creativity that Delwyn brings to her 

homemade goods.

caring for your community” Delwyn says. “What we serve at 

Mrs Dentons café & delicatessen is what I’ve been cooking at 

home, cooking for my family, forever!” 

While you will always find speciality gourmet pies, such as 

Chatham Island blue cod, leek and parsley, and scallop pies in the 

range, the sky is the limit when it comes to Delwyn’s culinary combinations. 

Steak and Kidney, BBQ beef, bacon and cheese are favourites too. 

The cafes takeaway cabinets are full of Delwyn’s delious baking including scones, 

muffins, slices, cinnamon buns & sandwiches as well as take home meals and gluten free,

WORKSHOP 

OFFERS OLD 

FASHIONED SERVICE 

2020 has seen some big changes for MD

of service and expertise they have always 

been known for. 

Formally, Allan’s Tyre & Auto, MD Automotive 

is a fully MTA Authorised workshop, 

offering a full range of mechanical repairs. 

From Warrants of Fitness, servicing, wheel 

alignments and tyre fitting through to 

cambelts, brakes and CV joints, suspension, 

shocks and steering. 

Pre-purchase inspections are also available so 

you can buy your next car with confidence. 

While MD Automotive are the only 

independent workshop in Christchurch 

specialising in Mitsubishi’s, their qualified 

automotive mechanics will service most 

makes and models and have over 20 years’ 

experience between them. Experienced in all 

Mitsubishi models (Pajero, Triton, Challenger, 

Colt, Galant, Diamante, Lancer, Evolutions, 

L300), they can also service all late model 

Mistubishi’s with common rail diesel. 

The workshop refit is nearing completion, 

so don’t hesitate to book your pride and joy 

in today. Loan cars are offered, subject to 

availability and for those small jobs there are 

plenty of options in our block to treat yourself 

at the same time.

Civic participation encouraged 

LAST MONTH our 

Waipapa/Papanui-Innes 

Community Board 

signed off our 2020-2022 

Community Board Plan. 

THis sets out our 

vision and priorities, and 

we will use it over the 

next two years to guide 

our decisions and our 

advocacy on behalf of our 

communities. 

The plan identifies four 

main priorities, the first 

being to improve and 

support community facilities 

and amenity in the 

Papanui-Innes area. We 

understand that a cohesive, 

resilient and happy community 

needs places to 

meet, socialise and learn, 

to be active and to connect. 

The need to support our 

vulnerable communities is 

something we hear about 

often, and this has also 

become a priority in this 

plan. 

We are lucky in Papanui- 

Innes to have some amazing 

groups working hard 

to make our communities 

better for all, and we want 

to continue to support 

them, particularly in 

targeting youth, the elderly 

and those who are socially 

isolated. 

We are aware that most 

From the board 

Emma Norrish, chair 

Waipapa/Papanui-Innes Community Board 

residents in our board area 

rarely engage with us or 

the city council, and we 

want to change that. By 

making encouraging civic 

participation a priority 

for the next two years, we 

want to ensure that our local 

community is educated 

about what is happening 

and can feel heard. 

We want to grow our 

community networks, 

encourage communityled 

projects, get people 

involved in our decisionmaking, 

and make our 

meetings more accessible. 

Our final priority is to 

endorse and encourage a 

functioning and safe traffic 

network that supports a 

connected community. We 

are committed to putting 

AWARENESS: 

The board 

will continue 

to engage 

about the 

downstream 

impacts of 

the Northern 

Corridor. 

community safety at the 

forefront of all our transport 

recommendations and 

decisions, so that people 

can travel in, around and 

through our communities 

safely, using any mode of 

transport. 

We are especially aware 

of the downstream impacts 

of the Christchurch Northern 

Corridor and of the 

increased development in 

Papanui, and will continue 

to engage with those communities. 

We look forward to 

working with you over the 

next two years to bring 

this vision to life, and to 

ensure the Papanui-Innes 

area continues to be a great 

place for everyone to live, 

work and play.

PROPERTY NEWS 

Destined for real estate 

If there was one word to describe Ray 

White real estate agent Brent Rushworth, 

it would be enthusiastic. This man loves 

his job and loves the company he works 

for. 

Brent’s career in real estate began when 

he joined Ray White Bishopdale in 2017. 

Prior to that he had run the New Zealand 

branch of an Australian optical supply 

company for 11 years, and when the New 

Zealand operation was closed following 

a buy-out, he was head-hunted to join a 

similar company. 

After a year with them, Brent decided it 

was time for a complete change. 

“My wife and I were keen on real 

estate,” Brent says. “We had bought, sold 

and built houses, so I knew that’s what I 

wanted to do. I wanted to design my own 

destiny, so while I was still working at 

my last job I studied for my Real Estate 

Diploma through Open Polytech in the 

evenings. 

“I knew Barry Ellis (owner of Ray 

White Strowan and Bishopdale) through 

rugby, we met for a coffee one day and he 

invited me to come on board.” 

Although it was a “steep learning 

curve” for Brent when he started, he 

is now an area expert in the NorWest, 

particularly in Casebrook and 

Bishopdale. In the three years since he 

joined Ray White Bishopdale, he has 

become a well-known face in the area 

through signage and letterbox drops, 

which has helped him become highly 

successful in selling real estate. So much 

so, that this year he has achieved Ray 

White Premier Status. 

“This is based on sales calculated on 

the Gross Commission Index, as well as 

customer feedback,” he explains. “Every 

time we sell a property, both the vendor 

and the purchaser are asked to complete 

a survey and give us an NPS score out of 

10.” 

The presentation of his Premier Status 

will take place in September. 

“Being successful in the real estate 

business is about the relationships 

we build with our clients. Everyone’s 

situation is different, so we need to be 

empathetic, make the process as stress 

free as possible, and help people achieve 

their dreams,” Brent says. 

“We have a saying in the office, and 

that’s ‘clients for life’. So, people come 

back to us whenever they want to sell a 

property, and they refer us to family and 

friends.” 

Brent describes Ray White Bishopdale 

as a “fantastic company to work for”. 

“There’s so much support and 

encouragement – they want to see you 

succeed.” 

The family values represented by the 

Ray White company, which was founded 

in Australia in 1902 by Ray White and is 

a fourth-generation family business, are 

mirrored with Barry and Karen Ellis, he 

says. 

“It’s the same values – you become part 

of the family, and that’s important to me. 

I like the culture here, too – having goals 

to achieve. The team environment is very 

important.” 

Brent’s wife Jayne has joined Ray White 

Bishopdale as his PA, taking care of 

administration and calling clients. She 

is currently studying for her Real Estate 

Diploma and once she achieves that, she 

and Brent will join forces as a real estate 

team. 

Real estate is a demanding industry, 

so it’s important to keep a balance 

with family life and taking time out to 

recharge the batteries, Brent says. 

He and Jayne have three sons, 20, 17 

and 12, and as a family they are actively 

Brent Rushworth and his wife Jayne. 

involved in rugby, skiing, and surfing. 

They live locally in Casebook, and 

Brent has been club captain of the local 

Merivale Papanui Rugby Football Club 

and currently coaches the junior team. 

He also provides sponsorship support 

to the rugby club, the local bowling club 

and Casebrook Intermediate. 

Enthusiastic in every aspect of his life, 

Brent makes sure he always provides the 

best possible service for his clients. If you 

are thinking about your next move in 

property, Brent can be contacted on 

021 451 177.

Okay, so this year – this most unusual of years – 

it’s all about home. 

Staying home, enjoying your very own backyard 

or that beautiful expanse we know as our entire 

countryside here in New Zealand. 

Holidays, breaks, refreshers, little weekends 

away are all to be enjoyed within our own 

boundaries and borders. 

Unlike other years, it’s about discovering or 

rediscovering what many Kiwis take for granted. 

Large, green open spaces, public galleries and 

museums (that unlike those in many cities 

around the world are free to visit), and rivers, 

lakes and mountains within driving distance for 

most. 

I can vividly remember being on a European trip 

with my family when the guide asked where we 

came from. After listening to our response, a long 

pause occurred, then a rather loud, disapproving 

Gaelic sniff. “Noo Zeeland, zee end of zee earth.” 

And at the time I thought it was, having taken 30 

hours to arrive at our destination, but today that 

very isolation feels like a blessing. It’s easy to 

see why so many are also taking time to reinvest 

some love and attention in their own properties 

due to staying home rather than traveling, and 

businesses such as landscapers, renovation 

builders and interior designers are seeing the 

benefits of that change. 

If a staycation is currently on your radar and 

you want to take the time to focus on your own 

home, here are some options that might give 

you some satisfaction, add value … or both. 

First, Declutter 

Nail that garage first. Get rid of all the stuff that’s 

broken, outdated or no longer useful. 

If it’s still functional but of no use to you, give it 

away, recycle or dispose of it in a method that’s 

environmentally mindful, if possible. 

I personally use the garage as a bit of a dumping 

ground, much to the frustration of my husband, 

but I also love the feeling of nailing an area that’s 

long needed a tidy-up. 

Once you’ve done that, move inside and see 

if you can improve your surroundings and 

wellbeing by editing some of the stuff that fills 

your space. 

Gentle Changes 

With these two areas decluttered, let’s go for 

some interior changes. 

Move furniture, move art, have some fun and 

enjoy the changes. 

Edit, and what you don’t edit, use. Nothing 

needs to occupy a precious space where items 

are relegated as being ‘just for good’. 

Use everything you have, no matter its value or 

composition, and have fun. 

Your family space should convey a feeling of 

warmth, wellbeing and welcome. 

Step Outside 

During the lockdown period, I remember 

watching people in Spain and thinking, what 

must it be like not being permitted to go outside? 

This is where so many of us are fortunate. No 

matter your home’s size, your property address, 

whether you’re in a large residence or a compact 

unit, try to make the most of the outdoors. Your 

outdoors. Follow the sun (if there is any!) and 

give thanks that although we might not be able 

to travel the world, you’d travel the world to find 

what we have in our own backyard. 

It seems that not only myself but others have 

had a chance to stop chasing everything that 

appears greener somewhere else, instead 

appreciating what’s been in front of our noses 

the whole time. Home. 

Here’s to your home and mine, and here’s to a 

staycation.

check as winter sets in 

Winter weather can present a range of tricky driving

frosts to fog and driving rain. That’s why it is important to make 

sure your vehicle is in tip-top shape and ready to deal with these 

hazards. 

The team at Roses Auto Electrical in Cranford Street 

recommends checking that your lights and windscreen wipers 

are in working order, and to ensure your vehicle will start on 

cold mornings they offer free battery and alternator and starter 

tests, and free battery fitting. 

Their well-equipped workshop includes specialised diagnostic 

equipment designed to find any faults with vehicles’ electronics, 

air bags or ABS braking system, which the qualified and 

experienced auto electrical specialists will repair quickly and 

efficiently. 

Roses Auto Electrical provides full electrical services for all 

makes and models of European, Japanese and light commercial 

vehicles. Any time a warning light flashes up on the dashboard, 

they advise calling into their workshop to have it checked out.

years, and the workshop team are constantly updating their 

knowledge with industry training, as well as having the latest 

state-of-the-art equipment in the workshop. 

The customer comes first for the friendly, professional team 

at Roses Auto Electrical, and motorists having their vehicle 

serviced there can have confidence in its performance and 

safety, especially in cold weather when driving is often more 

hazardous.

Think 70 is the new 50. 

Just because your hair might be grey, 

doesn’t mean your life needs to be. 

Today’s 70 year olds are the healthiest, strongest, 

and most mentally agile history has ever known. 

So Summerset Retirement Villages are designed 

for the active lifestyles of the youngest “oldies” 

there’s ever been. Think this sounds like you or 

someone you love? 

To find out about our three Christchurch villages, 

visit summerset.co.nz or call 0800 SUMMER
