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
LIFELINE:

Patrol chairman

donated to the
patrol.

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.

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:

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.

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.
