New use for old defibrillators 

• By Bea Gooding 

THE CHRISTCHURCH North 

Community Patrol has been 

gifted life-saving equipment to 

assist them in their efforts to 

keep people safe. 

The city council aquatics team 

has partnered with the New 

Zealand Red Cross to provide 

automated external defibrillators 

in the community. 

Formerly available in city 

council facilities, they are 

already back in use. The donation 

was also extended to the 

Hornby Community Patrol. 

Said north patrol chairman 

Sam Hall: “We’re really delighted, 

it means our second vehicle 

will have a defib as it’s out on 

the road more. We’re often the 

first ones at the scene, so it’s nice 

to know it’ll always be available 

to potentially save a life. 

“A lot of voluntary groups 

are struggling for cash at the 

moment and rely on donations 

like this. It’s worth about $2000 

- we’d never be able to buy one 

ourselves.” 

City council head of recreation, 

sports and events Nigel 

Cox said the defibrillators have 

saved many lives in its facilities, 

including poolsides and in work 

areas. 

“We update our defibrillators 

to best meet the needs of our 

busy spaces and some of the 

older models can be reused in 

the wider community,” he said. 

“These are handed to Red 

Cross for a full check and new 

batteries and pads before a 

suitable community home is 

found.” 

New Zealand Red Cross 

national products manager 

Marcus Bird said that the city 

council AEDs – initially provided 

through Red Cross – still 

have “plenty of life left and are 

ideal for community groups that 

may not normally have access to 

the devices.” 

“Nearly half of those people 

treated for cardiac arrest survive 

thanks to a defibrillator provided 

by a community responder,” 

he said. 

“They are such an important 

piece of the health and safety 

kit, with the council AEDs at a 

range of facilities and out in the 

hills environments. 

“With the council upgrading 

AEDs to the latest technology 

at high-use facilities such as

SLOAN 

pools, we can find a use for 

the older models. In this case, 

several community patrols had 

already approached us about 

keeping AEDs in their patrol 

cars.” 

The defibrillators are in good 

working order and can be repurposed, 

cleaned and checked 

out – with new batteries if 

needed – and used for a further 

five to seven years. 

“The more AEDs out there in 

the wider community, the better 

the chance of survival following 

a cardiac arrest,” Bird said. 

Many buildings 

free to access 

• From page 1 

The colleges will join 44 other 

buildings, including the Old Government 

building, Muse Art Hotel, 

Lane Neave, Rāpaki Church, Fo 

Guang Shan Buddhist temple, Te 

Hononga Civic Offices, Millstream 

apartment and the Lyttelton studio 

monastery. 

Eighty-five per cent of the buildings 

will be free to access. 

Said Halliday: “Architecture 

is a complex, rich art form and 

cultural product – it connects us 

with different histories, design, 

big and small ideas, materials and 

technologies, politics, art, identity, 

social and cultural values. There’s a 

lot to engage with and learn about 

when you focus on a building’s 

architecture. 

“Longer term we want Open 

Christchurch to be a gateway for 

more people to get involved in city 

making – in the processes and cultures 

that shape where we all live. 

“Open Christchurch is a celebration 

of the city’s architecture. 

We’ve packed the programme 

with access to a diverse range of 

buildings in the hope that’s there 

something for everyone.”

Cinema owner is looking for successor 

• By Samantha Mythen 

LANG MASTERS, long-time 

owner of the iconic Hollywood 

3 Cinema in Sumner, has turned 

90 and he’s still working seven 

days a week. 

If you stop by for a movie, you 

can see Lang with a big smile 

waiting behind the counter, usually 

during matinées. 

On April 30, friends, family, 

and work colleagues, old and 

new, gathered at Masters’ home 

to celebrate his birthday. 

He said he is still eating the 

leftovers from the three-tier film 

reel cake made especially for him. 

Lang has owned the cinema for 

more than 60 years. Hollywood 

Cinema was only open on Saturdays 

when Lang and his wife 

Maureen first took over in 1962. 

They painted and redecorated 

the 1938 building. 

Only now at 90, is he considering 

stepping down and is looking 

for someone to take over his 

share of the business. 

“It would be great if that person 

was interested in movies,” 

said Lang. 

“I would hate to see the theatre 

pulled down.” 

Even if it is sold. Lang said he 

would still pop in if they needed 

him. 

“I enjoy working here – it 

keeps you alive,” he said. 

Although Covid has resulted 

in a movie shortage, Lang said 

people have continued to support 

the theatre. 

“It would be great to see more 

visitors though.” 

Lang has been running 

theatres around the country 

since he was a teen. He attended 

Christchurch Boys’ High School 

and hosted movies on 16mm 

film for friends in his parent’s 

garage. 

In 1981, at the height of Lang 

and Maureen’s cinematic empire, 

they ran seven cinemas in 

Christchurch.

‘A very enjoyable life’ 

• From page 5 

“The hard part is making sure 

you pick the right films,” he said. 

“Here, we do better with arty films 

not blood-thirsty action films.” 

In 2013, Lang won a New 

Zealand Motion Picture Industry 

Council award for service to the 

industry. 

The Hollywood Cinema first 

opened in 1938 and has been 

screening movies since then. A 

second screen was added in 1976 

and a third in 1999. 

In 2014, the cinema won the 

people’s choice award for the 

best independent cinema at the 

New Zealand Motion Picture 

Awards. 

In his home on Scarborough 

Hill, Lang has his own theatre, 

where friends and family visit. 

Lang’s personal favourite genre 

is musicals – South Pacific, the 

Sound of Music, Oklahoma – 

movies accompanied by a chocolate 

dipped ice cream. 

Lang said running theatres 

with his wife Maureen has made 

it a very enjoyable life. 

CELEBRATIONS: 

Lang Masters 

still works 

full-time at

Leaving a legacy after 43 years at Foodstuffs 

JOHN MULLINS will leave 

behind a legacy of innovation 

and change when he retires from 

Foodstuffs South Island after 43 

years. 

As general manager of supply 

chain, he oversaw the operation 

projects that provide customers 

with the experience they have 

with the Foodstuffs brands of 

today. 

Starting his Foodstuffs career 

as a management cadet back in 

1978 in Christchurch, Mullins 

worked in a range of roles training 

in areas of sales desk, warehouse 

operations, Cash‘N‘Carry, 

and general clerical duties. 

“Looking back on my time 

at Foodstuffs South Island, I 

was fortunate enough to be able 

to work in a variety of roles, 

upskilling and working my way 

around the business,” Mullins, of 

Fendalton, said. 

“In the 80s, I was given the 

opportunity to move into a shipping 

and purchasing role, later 

taking up the role of wholesale 

operations manager in 1985. 

“It was the number of different 

roles I took on in the 80s that has 

helped to shape my knowledge 

and understanding of how the 

business continues to operate so 

successfully today.” 

The end of the 1980s saw a 

merger between Foodstuffs 

Christchurch and Foodstuffs 

Otago, forming Foodstuffs South 

Island. 

For Mullins, this meant further 

opportunities as he moved 

into a new corporate executive 

role. 

“During my time at Foodstuffs 

Christchurch and later Foodstuffs 

South Island I’ve enjoyed 

watching the business transform, 

helping to integrate new systems, 

operations and technology 

throughout our supply chain,” 

he said. 

“It has been incredible seeing 

the business grow over the years 

with new retail stores, technology 

advancements, and larger 

premises for more capacity to 

store food for extended periods 

of time.” 

The year 2003 saw Mullins move 

into his role of general manager 

wholesale operations and procurement, 

and in 2010 he was given the 

role of general manager of supply 

chain and was appointed an adviser 

to the board. 

Said Foodstuffs South Island 

chief executive Steve Anderson: 

VARIETY: After 

43 years, supply 

chain general 

manager 

John Mullins 

is retiring from 

his crucial role 

at Foodstuffs 

South Island. 

oN sAle Now! 

“I’ve had the privilege of working 

with John over the past 20 

years and seen first-hand the 

instrumental role he played in 

developing and growing our supply 

chain. 

“Some highlights for me include 

John setting up our procurement 

and inventory systems, developing 

and launching our warehouse 

management system and its ongoing 

enhancements, not forgetting 

the many other projects he’s tackled 

over the years.” 

Over the last couple of decades, 

highlights for Mullins include 

the opening of the Hornby 

chilled and frozen distribution 

centre in 2000, the opening of 

the Hornby ambient DC in 2007 

and further expansion in 2014, 

and the launch of Foodstuffs 

South Island’s transport company, 

to name a few. 

Last year he oversaw the 

opening of the new Hornby 

temperature-controlled DC to 

name a few. 

The opening was a highlight 

for Mullins as it upscaled Foodstuffs’ 

operations with their new 

world-class chilled and frozen 

distribution centre. 

This meant they were able to 

increase the volume, range of 

product and services required 

for them to continue feeding the 

South Island. 

The building and opening of 

the new DC was a massive project 

which created over 100 additional 

jobs and meant upscaling 

operations to provide deliveries 

to our retail stores seven days a 

week. 

Although the everyday sounds 

of forklifts whirling and trucks 

reversing will become but a thing 

of the past, upon retirement, 

Mullins looks forward to 

continuing his outdoor pursuits, 

giving back to the community 

with local governance roles and 

spending time with his family.

Refitted and ready to go 

Join us for our official launch week, 

Monday 17th May – Saturday 22nd May 

Unichem Bishopdale Pharmacy has been 

proudly locally owned and operated for over 

55 years. During this time, the pharmacy has 

undergone several refits to accommodate 

the growing Bishopdale community and best 

cater to our customer’s needs. 

With the last refit taking place in 2007, our 

co-owners Amanda, Maria and Anna decided 

that it was time for another one to focus 

on improving key areas of the pharmacy. 

These improvements are aimed at ensuring 

customers have a good experience by 

further enhancing the service, health and 

well-being and gift range of the pharmacy. 

Since the 1st of March 2021, the refit team 

has worked to ensure renovation work has 

been carried out quickly and efficiently. As a 

result of the team’s efforts, the new look of 

the pharmacy has been completed, with a 

renovated dispensary, consulting rooms and 

more floor space. Upgraded painting, carpet 

and lighting has created a fresh and modern 

feel in the pharmacy. 

On the outside of the pharmacy, the roofing 

has been redone and two windows have 

been placed to let a natural light into the 

pharmacy and improve visibility into the 

pharmacy from the street. 

With the launch week fast approaching, we 

have highlighted the reasoning behind some 

key areas of the refit. 

Pharmacy Owners: Anna, Amanda & Maria 

Pharmacists & Dispensary Technicians: 

Gina, Carol, Safaa, Hearty, Erica, Michelle, Stuart & Jo 

Services 

We always aim to provide excellent medicine and 

health services to our customers. This refit has enabled 

important facilities to be upgraded as a way of ensuring 

the team has the right tools to best deliver these 

services. The demand for quality prescription services 

continues, therefore renovating the dispensary has 

been a big focus during the refit. The new dispensary 

ensures that our pharmacists have a well-designed 

area to efficiently complete prescriptions. Providing 

professional health advice to customers is another 

key feature of the pharmacy. The creation of two fully 

private consulting rooms, as well as a pop-in consulting 

room means that customers have a comfortable and 

accessible space for consultations with our pharmacists. 

Retail Team: Sharon, Yvonne, Rose & Anita 

Giftshop 

The giftshop maintains a high priority at the pharmacy due to 

ongoing demand from our customers. The refit has created a 

much bigger floorspace which makes it easier for customers to 

look through the giftshop. Yvonne, our retail manager is always 

working on sourcing the best variety of gift products for the 

pharmacy and the new layout gives us the ability to provide 

even more gift choice for our customers.

Polytech graduation with a twist 

ISABELLA Buckingham is able 

to pursue her passion while still 

being able to give back to the 

community. 

Graduating with a bachelor of 

applied science in psychology, 

the Papanui resident spoke of 

her journey to helping others 

live healthier lifestyles at the 

Open Polytechnic graduation 

ceremony. 

More than 150 graduates from 

across the South Island took to 

the stage last week to receive 

their well-earned qualifications 

at the Air Force Museum – with 

a Covid-19 twist. 

Things were a little different 

when both the 2020 and 2021 

graduates were in attendance 

due to the cancellation of last 

year’s awards because of the 

pandemic. 

“I have always wanted 

meaningful work, and to 

me, that looks like actively 

participating 

in my community in ways that 

will help others,” Buckingham 

said. 

After finding herself at a 

crossroads in life, then deciding 

to take the leap to study in 

2017, Buckingham gained not 

only a deeper appreciation of the 

complexity of her chosen 

field, but the tools to help others. 

“I am proud to say that I now 

work for a sports organisation 

as a healthy lifestyle adviser, a 

job that I absolutely love. And 

one where I get to help motivate 

people to make lifestyle changes 

that benefit them, every single 

day,” she said. 

She also acknowledged 

the challenges of her fellow 

graduates in balancing distance 

study for many “while trying 

GIVING BACK: Open Polytechnic graduate Isabella Buckingham 

presented a parting speech at the ceremony to the class of 2020 and 

2021. 

to juggle jobs, children, global 

pandemics and lockdowns.” 

Said Buckingham: “Despite 

the challenges our learning 

has faced, we have also become 

better people. Our learning has 

given us a new picture for what 

our future will look like.” 

Open Polytechnic chief 

executive Dr Caroline Seelig said 

the flexibility of distance study 

meant the organisation’s mainly 

adult graduates were able to 

complete their studies while 

continuing to move forward in 

their careers. 

Family treats for $10,000 Countdown voucher winner 

MICHELLE WRIGHT’S 

family can indulge in the odd 

extra treat now that they have a 

$10,000 Countdown voucher. 

The Shirley mother was lost for 

words when she won the vouchers 

as part of The Palms Shopping 

Centre and Countdown 

Spend and Win campaign. 

It felt like winning the lottery, 

she said. It will take some 

pressure off the weekly grocery 

spend, enabling the family to 

save a bit of money ahead of the 

winter months. 

“I had never really won 

anything apart from some 

skincare, and certainly not 

$10,000. When I rang my 

husband, he didn’t believe me at 

first, and then it was excitement,” 

Wright said. 

“It took a few days to think 

about the money, but I have 

shouted morning tea at work and 

donated a few items to charity. 

As for the family, we have been 

able to purchase a nice bit of 

steak and some salmon for a 

change and the odd extra special 

treat. 

“It is important for a local 

shopping centre to have incentives, 

especially with businesses 

being hit by Covid-19. Promotions 

like this bring people in to 

spend in their local community, 

and everyone ends up benefitting.” 

The Palms Shopping Centre 

manager Keryn Ward said the 

mall always looks for ways to 

give back to the community. 

“We have seen in the past 

couple of years quite a lot of food 

banks being established in the 

Christchurch community and 

felt this was an opportunity to 

work with Countdown, highlight 

those needs and establish an 

initiative which further helped 

the wider community,” Ward 

said.

Every week in our auction rooms I get to 

see a huge range of emotions playing out. 

I’m often very moved by the drama that a 

competitive process can create for attendees 

and my heart goes out to them. There are 

tears about missing a much-wanted but very 

sought-after property, there’s elation at 

successfully purchasing, there’s a genuine 

pride at finally getting on the property 

ladder and, for some parents, there’s the 

realisation that without them the purchase 

would not have been possible. 

Over my numerous years in real estate, I’ve 

had a number of requests to accommodate 

this kind of lifestyle as people seek different 

options. The essentials are usually space, a 

downstairs bedroom with accompanying en 

suite, and separate living rooms for when the 

inevitable collision of music and T.V. choices 

occurs! For us, this happens when our niece 

wants to watch Brooklyn 99 and Dad’s set on a 

Warriors game repeat. 

Not only do I live intergenerationally, but I also 

have the great pleasure of working this way 

too. 

Intergenerational workplaces can be 

calamities, but they can also be both 

enlightening and refreshing. Here’s a reminder 

about the generations when simply defined: 

1. The Silent Generation (born between 1928 

and 1945) – my dad, though he’s not silent! 

2. Baby Boomers (1946 – 1964) 

3. Generation X (1965 – 1980) 

4. Millennials (1981 – 1996) 

5. Generation Z (1997 – 2012) 

Our workplace has until recently (with the 

retirement of one of our founding consultants, 

Mr Mark Brownlee) had members of each of 

these generations and I’ve learnt wonderful 

lessons from all of them. Amongst the 

standouts are those that I’ve received from our 

in-house marketing team, aged from 19 years 

to 32 years. My constant engagement with 

them has resulted in some hilarious insights 

and here are some of those that they’ve taught 

me: 

1. As Millennials, it can take time to gain 

the respect of our Generation X and 

predominantly Baby Boomer teammates, who 

can struggle with much younger people (and 

their ideologies) in senior roles. 

2. “Thinking that if you’re on your phone it must 

be because you’re looking for entertainment 

rather than researching work matters.” 

3. “Hearing life and financial advice from 

people who think you can buy a house on a 

single waitress wage.” (This was a biggie!) 

And, to provide additional context, here’s the 

flipside of the Millennial outlook: 

4. “The older generations” have clearer priorities 

and can be more thoughtful, with a strong 

sense of wisdom. 

5. They have the instincts and advice that 

Millennials/Gen Z need, and they care. 

Do you work intergenerationally, because it’s 

almost impossible not to? As with anything in 

life, it’s what you make of it. Make it good.

HEALTH & AWARENESS 



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 

SHOULDER 

PAIN 

KNEE PAIN 

balance. They teach a movement sequence 

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. 

HIP PAIN 

(the crosses are the areas of the muscle spasms, the red areas is where the pain is felt) 

If severe arthritis is the underlying cause, 

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 

and only pay $50 on that treament. 

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

Thank You 

for your support! 

Harcourts Holmwood are thrilled to have 

been honoured with multiple accolades at 

the recent Harcourts Canterbury Annual 

Awards. We have immense gratitude to 

our team for their great work and to our 

clients for their continued faith in us. 

Awards on their own don’t really mean much, 

but put them into context and they mean a 

great deal. They remind us of the thousands 

of incredible sellers, buyers, investors and 

tenants we have had the opportunity to assist 

this year – we thank you for your support and 

for choosing our team as your team. They also 

remind us that in doing great business, we’ve 

had the incredible opportunity to support 

others in their endeavours to make our 

community great; through our charitable giving 

such as Nurse Maude, Cholmondeley House, 

Good Bitches Baking, Inspire Foundation... to 

name a few. We are grateful every day for the 

opportunity to help people in our community, 

not only in their real estate goals, but also in 

building a fantastic city together.
