Appeal claims off-licence was<br />
granted under ‘apparent error’<br />
• By Natalie Pham<br />
A WOOLSTON resident<br />
has lodged an appeal against<br />
the decision to grant an offlicence<br />
to a liquor store in a<br />
“vulnerable” area.<br />
The appeal came after police,<br />
the medical officer of health, and<br />
a group of concerned residents<br />
failed to stop Super Liquor’s<br />
application on Ferry Rd.<br />
The store is located in a level<br />
9 deprived area, and there are<br />
now 13 off-licences within<br />
2km. The New Zealand Index<br />
of Deprivation ranges from one<br />
to 10 and measures the level of<br />
socioeconomic deprivation for<br />
areas.<br />
Last month, the Christchurch<br />
District Licensing Committee<br />
granted G & B Private Ltd an<br />
off-licence application to trade<br />
between 8am-11pm daily.<br />
One of the objectors, Paul<br />
McMahon, has submitted<br />
an appeal to the decision,<br />
requesting the Alcohol<br />
Regulatory and Licensing<br />
Authority either refuse the<br />
application or remit back to the<br />
committee for rehearing.<br />
The appeal claimed the<br />
DLC erred by deciding the<br />
new owners met the extended<br />
suitability.<br />
CONCERNED: Woolston resident Paul McMahon has filed an appeal against the decision<br />
to grant an off-licence to Super Liquor Woolston. <br />
Medical officer of health representative<br />
Paula Williams said<br />
the applicant’s understanding<br />
of harm in this vulnerable community<br />
was limited.<br />
The applicant, Sukhwant<br />
Singh Brar, only had experience<br />
in farm management and freight<br />
contracting, she highlighted.<br />
As noted in the hearing: “Williams’<br />
view is that in no way<br />
would such experience prepare<br />
the applicant for operating an<br />
off-licence in a vulnerable community.”<br />
She also raised a concern<br />
about the sale of high-alcohol<br />
single products, which Brar had<br />
chosen to sell at a low price.<br />
During the first visit to the<br />
store – which has been operating<br />
under a temporary licence for 14<br />
months – the licensing inspector<br />
Anneke Lavery found a bucket<br />
of single-sale beers on sale for $2<br />
each. The store also had an offer<br />
of three Baltika beers for $10<br />
fortnightly at the time.<br />
Lavery “felt the applicants<br />
would not be doing the same<br />
again.” She also referred to this<br />
as a “learning experience.”<br />
However, counsel for McMahon<br />
Dr Grant Hewison said<br />
there was no room for a learning<br />
experience in such an environment.<br />
When he asked if the offer<br />
of three Baltika cans for $10<br />
was socially responsible in a<br />
deprived area, Super Liquor<br />
franchise manager Paul Webster<br />
responded with “possibly not –<br />
no.”<br />
The appeal also claimed the<br />
DLC relied on an “apparent<br />
error” in its decision-making.<br />
As noted at the hearing,<br />
counsel for the liquor store Peter<br />
Egden said if the new licence<br />
would not be granted, the base<br />
licence held by the former owner<br />
would remain.<br />

Funding applications open for<br />
projects that address climate change<br />
THE CITY council’s<br />
sustainability fund is<br />
now open and accepting<br />
applications for projects<br />
that help address the<br />
council’s climate change<br />
objectives and targets.<br />
Anyone can apply<br />
for funding, including<br />
community organisations,<br />
schools, social enterprises<br />
and businesses.<br />
The fund’s key objectives<br />
are to meet the challenge<br />
of climate change through<br />
every means available,<br />
to help our community<br />
understand and prepare<br />
for the ongoing impacts<br />
of climate change, benefit<br />
from a just transition to an<br />
innovative, low-emission<br />
economy, and be guardians<br />
of our natural environment<br />
and taonga.<br />
“It’s awesome to see the<br />
range of ideas and projects<br />
that emerge every time<br />
we open the fund. We are<br />
lucky to have so many<br />
passionate, innovative,<br />
solution-focused groups<br />
delivering sustainability<br />
treasures from the past<br />
projects in Christchurch,”<br />
city council climate<br />
resilience lead Tony Moore<br />
said.<br />

My school visits are always rewarding and<br />
enjoyable. Lyttelton Primary School is a<br />
microcosm of Lyttelton itself; small but<br />
vibrant with a real focus on community and<br />
environment. My recent visit to the school<br />
was yet another opportunity to see passionate<br />
teachers, led by Principal Brendan Wright,<br />
encouraging and engaging with students and<br />
nurturing the values of the wider community.<br />
I was also fortunate enough to visit<br />
Whakaraupō Carving Centre while in<br />
Lyttelton, which is a charitable trust that seeks<br />
to uphold the mana of Te Ao Māori through<br />
art and ancient teachings. Kaiwhakairo<br />
(carvers) Damien Mackie and Eugene<br />
Whakatope were kind enough to show me<br />
through the workshop, which has produced<br />
many exquisite examples of carving on display<br />
throughout the peninsula, including the<br />
pou whenua at the Timeball station and on<br />
Ōtamahua/ Quail Island, and the waharoa at<br />
Hōhepa Canterbury.<br />
A few days later I was on the tops above<br />
Goughs <strong>Bay</strong> to discuss road repairs and<br />
communications connectivity with eastern<br />
bays residents. Hugh Wilson of Hinewai<br />
Reserve even made an impromptu appearance<br />
on his bike. Representing an electorate<br />
with both urban and rural populations is<br />
always interesting as the challenges these<br />
communities face vary so much, but it also<br />

The setting will be less windy and more<br />
formal at the Akaroa Ratepayers’ & Residents’<br />
Association upcoming public meeting, but<br />
the sentiment will be the same. I will be in<br />
attendance around the time this goes to print<br />
to listen to a range of residents on challenges<br />
such as climate change, tourism and civil<br />
defence. I’m sure it will be a productive<br />
meeting and together we will work toward<br />
tailored solutions to local issues.<br />
Lastly, it’s important to note the upcoming<br />
local elections. Voting is open from 16<br />
<strong>September</strong> to 8 October and your vote will<br />
help decide who represents you at the city,<br />
district and regional council levels. Councils<br />
make a raft of decisions that affect our daily<br />
lives, from the provision of services such as<br />
rubbish and recycling, parks and libraries to<br />
town planning and the collection of rates.<br />
When you vote, take some time to look into<br />
the values and policies of the candidates<br />
seeking your support.<br />
The infamously low voter turn-out rates belie<br />
the importance of local government elections,<br />
so I strongly encourage everyone to make<br />
their vote count this year.<br />

Deprived area has 13 off-licences within 2km<br />
• From page 1<br />
However, the base licence<br />
of the liquor store already<br />
expired a month prior to the<br />
hearing. Neither the objectors<br />
or the counsel were aware of the<br />
expired licence.<br />
Said Hewison: “There was a big<br />
assumption at the hearing that<br />
if the applicants are not granted<br />
a licence, the store will still be<br />
there.<br />
“The previous owners<br />
could have lodged a renewal<br />
application 20 working days<br />
before the expiry date, but they<br />
did not,” Hewison said.<br />
This prompted the DLC to<br />
grant Super Liquor Woolston<br />
a fifth temporary licence to<br />
accommodate the hearing.<br />
“But how could there be<br />
another temporary licence if the<br />
base licence already expired?”<br />
Hewison said.<br />
“It appears that the committee<br />
believed that after the base<br />
licence was expired, as long as<br />
the temporary authority was<br />
granted before that, then it can<br />
continue on.”<br />
He added: “In fact, this is an<br />
application for a brand new<br />
store, because there is no longer<br />
any underlying licence.”<br />
According to the Sale and<br />
Supply of Alcohol Act 2012,<br />
when an application relates to<br />
a premise where an off-licence<br />
WOOLSTON: There are 13 off-licences, including Super Liquor Woolston, within a 2km radius. Ongoing alcohol-related<br />
issues have led to a petition calling for an alcohol ban in Woolston Village.<br />
is in force and seeks the same<br />
conditions, the grounds for<br />
objection are limited to the<br />
suitability of the application.<br />
Much evidence presented by<br />
the residents at the hearing was<br />
excluded, as they were identified<br />
as matters of good order and<br />
amenity of locality.<br />
McMahon said he and other<br />
objectors had lots to say about<br />
deprivation and excessive of<br />
alcohol within the community.<br />
“But we were not allowed to<br />
talk about that,” he said.<br />
Hewison said it would be<br />
a “different picture” for the<br />
application of a brand new<br />
store.<br />
The objectors can object to all<br />
criteria under section 105 the<br />
Act, including the effect of the<br />
licence on the good order and<br />
amenity of locality.<br />
In spite of statements from<br />
the medical officer of health<br />
representative and other<br />
objectors, the committee<br />
found Brar suitable to hold a<br />
licence.<br />
He and his cousin Jagroop<br />
Singh Brar, who is the other<br />
shareholder and director of the<br />
business, both have diplomas<br />
and experience in business<br />
management outside of the<br />
alcohol industry.<br />
“They have been running the<br />
bottle store without incident for<br />
some 14 months and have taken<br />
on board suggestions provided<br />
to them by the inspector in the<br />
course of regular inspections,”<br />
the committee said.<br />
The business also employed<br />
a “high experienced manager<br />
who takes an active role in the<br />
running of the business”.<br />
Sukhwant Singh Brar, the<br />
owner of Super Liquor Woolston,<br />
said the appeal has put pressures<br />
on his business.<br />
“We haven’t done any crime.<br />
We haven’t done anything<br />
wrong.”<br />
Said Brar: “We put in time<br />
and money and all that. You can<br />
imagine how much money is<br />
going into this, right?”<br />
The store is still operating<br />
under a temporary licence.<br />
Alcohol-related anti-social<br />
behaviour has been an ongoing<br />
issue in Woolston. Calls for<br />
police service in the area, which<br />
the store is located, average more<br />
than 700 a year for a 1km area<br />
for the past three years, with<br />
the last year having the highest<br />
number.<br />
In its latest meeting, the<br />
Waikura Linwood-Central-<br />
Heathcore Community Board<br />
asked the city council to<br />
investigate an alcohol ban after it<br />
received a petition from the local<br />
community.<br />
The petition, with more<br />
than 150 signatures, was in<br />
supporting for an alcohol ban.<br />

Astrid joins learn-to-sail fleet<br />
THE PLEASANT Point Sailing<br />
Club launched its 102nd sailing<br />
season on Sunday with 24 boats<br />
lining up for the starter’s gun,<br />
and another six just out to enjoy<br />
the day.<br />
The race started in light winds<br />
under sunny blue skies, with<br />
these conditions prevailing for<br />
much of the race. The forecast<br />
blustery nor’wester arrived for<br />
the last third to inject some<br />
excitement for the finish and<br />
provide great stories in the club<br />
house afterwards.<br />
This season the club has<br />
revised its learn-to-sail programmes<br />
and is offering a six<br />
week course, starting on <strong>September</strong><br />
24, for those keen to give<br />
sailing a go.<br />
For those who miss this block<br />
or want extra guidance after<br />
completing it, dedicated ongoing<br />
coaching and support is planned<br />
throughout the season to ensure<br />
no-one slips through the cracks.<br />
In a new development, the<br />
club has added a Sigrid trailer<br />
sailer (Astrid) into its sailing development<br />
programme, to take<br />
the “classroom” onto the water.<br />
Astrid will be crewed by<br />
recent learn-to-sail graduates,<br />

Record rain<br />
ups load for<br />
parks staff<br />
A RECORD-breaking wet winter<br />
could lead to phenomenal spring<br />
growth and higher than usual<br />
workloads for parks maintenance<br />
crews and home gardeners.<br />
“In July we received 310mm of<br />
rain – about half the amount that<br />
Christchurch typically receives<br />
in a year. If our wet winter is<br />
followed by a warmer than usual<br />
spring, as is forecast, then we are<br />
likely to see rampant grass and<br />
vegetation growth,’’ city council<br />
head of parks Andrew Rutledge<br />
said.<br />
“We have been planning for<br />
this and we have pulled in some<br />
extra resources to help with parks<br />
maintenance over the spring, but<br />
staying on top of the growth will<br />
be challenge,’’ he said.<br />
“We have more than 1200<br />
parks and gardens to look after<br />
across Christchurch and Banks<br />
Peninsula. It is going to be a<br />
huge job to keep them all well<br />
maintained through the peak<br />
growing season, so we may have<br />
to prioritise some tasks over<br />
others.”<br />
Rutland said public safety,<br />
including addressing fire risks,<br />
was the number one concern,<br />
with getting sports grounds ready<br />
for summer also a priority.<br />

Yes, Minister<br />
by Chris Finlayson<br />
Christopher Finlayson was one the most senior ministers of the John Key government and<br />
was one of John Key’s most trusted ministers. He is the author of He Kupu Taurangi: Treaty<br />
Settlements and the Future of Aotearoa New Zealand . He left politics in 2019 and now works for<br />
Bankside Chambers as a barrister.<br />
An insightful and entertaining glimpse into what really made the John Key government one of the<br />
most successful conservative governments New Zealand has ever seen. Christopher Finlayson<br />
is a lawyer and was a senior minister in the John Key-led National government, serving as<br />
Attorney-General, Minister for Treaty of Waitangi Negotiations, and Minister of Arts, Culture and<br />
Heritage, as well as the Minister responsible for the Government Communications Security<br />
Bureau and Minister in Charge of the NZ Security Intelligence Service, NZ’s two main intelligence<br />
agencies. Yes, Minister reveals the inner workings of what it was like to be at the centre of power<br />
in New Zealand, and shines a light on the real John Key. Chris reveals what Key was really like<br />
as prime minister: utterly effective and utterly ruthless when needed. Told with Chris’s trademark<br />
good humour and wit, this is a thoroughly entertaining and perceptive book, as well as a<br />
substantial record of one of the most successful conservative governments in NZ.<br />
Tough Outback<br />
by Mike Bellamy<br />
A Kiwi’s stories of misadventure, mining and mayhem<br />
In 1989 Mike Bellamy set off for the remote town of Wiluna, on the edge of the Western<br />
Desert. Keen to make a buck from Australia’s mining boom, the fledgling Kiwi soon<br />
realised he’d walked across a frontier into a roughshod world where anyone trying to last<br />
longer than a desert sunrise had to watch their back, play by the rules, and keep their wits<br />
about them.<br />
Bellamy’s stories of dongas, dozers and diggers is a window back in time to work-hard,<br />
play-hard land, where snakes, spiders and flies were the least of one’s worries. Welcome<br />
to the tough mining country of Western Australia. Mike Bellamy is a New Zealand author<br />
and earthworks contractor who lives in Taupo, New Zealand. His first book, Tough<br />
Country, was about the lives of loggers, hunters, scrub-cutters, fencers and bushmen in<br />
the New Zealand hinterland. Bellamy also spent 30 years in the mining country of Western<br />
Australia, which is the setting for his second book of yarns, Tough Outback.<br />
Owning It<br />
by Brad Smeele<br />
Deeply thoughtful, honest and riveting story of a high-achieving sportsman who became<br />
a quadriplegic. Brad Smeele’s thrill-seeking, fast-paced life as a professional wakeboarder<br />
came to an abrupt halt seven years ago when an accident caused him to become a<br />
quadriplegic. Wakeboarding is a freestyle sport for super athletic adrenalin junkies. Brad<br />
was at the height of his career, winning world championships and perfecting tricks that no<br />
one else could achieve. He was also a sought-after model and relished his free-wheeling<br />
lifestyle. But in July 2014, while practising his latest trick, he landed badly. Catastrophically,<br />
in fact. He landed on his neck, completely crushing his spinal cord and becoming a<br />
quadriplegic immediately. For someone whose whole life was built around his physical<br />
prowess, this was completely and utterly devastating. Brad has had to work through a great<br />
deal, from being an incredibly physical person in all senses of the word to being someone<br />
with very limited use of his body. The struggle has been monumental, but he’s come to a<br />
place of acceptance. In this book he shares his epic story and the lessons he has learned<br />
through an unexpected teacher. He brings the same focus and determination he brought to<br />
his wakeboarding career to inspiring others.<br />

The Elephants of Thula Thula<br />
by Françoise Malby-Anthony<br />
Françoise Malby-Anthony is the owner of a game reserve in South Africa with a remarkable<br />
family of elephants whose adventures have touched hearts around the world. The herd’s<br />
feisty matriarch Frankie knows who’s in charge at Thula Thula, and it’s not Francoise.<br />
But when Frankie becomes ill, and the authorities threaten to remove or cull some of the<br />
herd if the reserve doesn’t expand, Françoise is in a race against time to save her beloved<br />
elephants . . . The joys and challenges of a life dedicated to conservation are vividly<br />
described in The Elephants of Thula Thula. The search is on to get a girlfriend for orphaned<br />
rhino Thabo – and then, as his behaviour becomes increasingly boisterous, a big brother<br />
to teach him manners. Françoise realizes a dream with the arrival of Savannah the<br />
cheetah – an endangered species not seen in the area since the 1940s – and finds herself<br />
rescuing meerkats kept as pets. But will Thula Thula survive the pandemic, an invasion<br />
from poachers and the threat from a mining company wanting access to its land?<br />
As Françoise faces her toughest years yet, she realizes once again that with their wisdom,<br />
resilience and communal bonds, the elephants have much to teach us.<br />

28 years of service recognised<br />
A WOOLSTON resident<br />
has been awarded for her<br />
contributions to the local<br />
community.<br />
Bev Adams, who is well<br />
known through her work as<br />
manager of the Woolston Development<br />
Project, received a Paul<br />
Harris Fellow award for her<br />
contributions.<br />
Launched in 1988, WDP is<br />
a not-for-profit community<br />
organisation that provides<br />
safe recreational, social, and<br />
educational opportunities for<br />
children, women and families.<br />
In her 28 years of working for<br />
community organisations, Adams<br />
held many roles, including<br />
provision of Out of School Care<br />
and Recreation, which offers<br />
before and after school care and<br />
Huge support for harness racing trainer<br />
IN A MATTER of<br />
hours the fundraiser<br />
to help Motukarara<br />
harness racing trainer<br />
Murray Edmonds<br />
and his family at<br />
Addington Raceway<br />
sold out.<br />
Since the popular<br />
trainer-driver was<br />
diagnosed with a<br />
brain tumour several<br />
weeks ago, the harness racing<br />
community has rallied around<br />
Murray<br />
Edmonds<br />
school holiday programmes.<br />
She then spent seven years as<br />
a family support worker for the<br />
WDP, and another six as manager<br />
and administrator before<br />
retiring in 2021.<br />
Adams also established a<br />
women’s social support group,<br />
which marked its 20th anniversary<br />
in October 2020. Here, she<br />
facilitated the group while continuing<br />
volunteering at WDP.<br />
Outside of her work, Adams<br />
was involved with the Woolston<br />
Community Pool, and is also<br />
a member of the Purple Patch<br />
Craft Co-Operative.<br />
The Paul Harris Fellow award<br />
was established by Rotary in<br />
1957 to recognise significant<br />
contributions to either Rotary<br />
or the community.<br />
him and his family.<br />
Among the initiatives<br />
they have come<br />
up with is a fundraising<br />
dinner and auction<br />
at the Silks Lounge on<br />
<strong>September</strong> 22.<br />
“The response has<br />
been incredible,” said<br />
Stevie Golding, who is<br />
organising the function<br />
along with Sandi<br />
Curtin and Murray’s niece,<br />
Aimee Edmonds.<br />
HONOURED: Bev Adams has received a Paul Harris<br />
Fellow award for her significant contributions to the<br />
Woolston community. <br />
“We have been inundated<br />
with people wanting to show<br />
their support for Murray. We<br />
are sorry for those who still<br />
want to come but we just do<br />
not have any more room.”<br />
More than 300 people have<br />
bought tickets, with tables of<br />
10 selling for $650.<br />
The evening will also feature<br />
raffles and auctions, with proceeds<br />
going to the Edmonds<br />
family.<br />
“It says so much about<br />
our sport that so many people<br />
want to help out one of our<br />
own who is going through<br />
tough times. The amount of<br />
support has been overwhelming,”<br />
said Golding.<br />
Anyone who would like to<br />
contribute to Edmonds and his<br />
family can still do so at ANZ<br />
06 0851 0495283 00.<br />

UPGRADE: From young Kwik Sticks players to seniors, new surfaces at Nunweek Park will be a benefit to all who play hockey. PHOTOS: GEOFF SOPER<br />
$2.7m upgrade for Nunweek Park playing surfaces<br />
YOUNG HOCKEY players will<br />
soon be able to play on surfaces<br />
good enough for the Black Sticks<br />
thanks to a $393,400 grant from<br />
New Zealand Community Trust.<br />
Two of Nunweek Park’s<br />
sand-based turfs owned and<br />
maintained by the Canterbury<br />
Artificial Surfaces Trust are to be<br />
updated to modern water-based<br />
surfaces along with new lighting,<br />
fencing and drainage.<br />
The two turfs were laid in<br />
2012 following the loss of two<br />
water-based turfs at Porritt Park<br />
in Avonside.<br />
Since then, the turfs at Nunweek<br />
Park in Harewood have<br />
been a seven-days-a-week home<br />
to the region’s 6000 hockey<br />
players, with up to 100 games<br />
and 50-60 training games taking<br />
place there each week.<br />
But with their heavy use, the<br />
turfs are now in a poor state<br />
and are becoming unsafe to play<br />
on. The $2.7 million upgrade<br />
is being funded from CAST<br />
reserves and with the support of<br />
a range of community funders<br />
including the $393k grant from<br />
NZCT.<br />
Said CAST chair Selwyn<br />
Maister: “We’ve squeezed every<br />
last minute out of these two<br />
sand turfs, and they are now<br />
past their use by dates. These<br />
new generation turfs will be a<br />
giant step forward for the future<br />
growth of community hockey<br />
in Canterbury. We’re incredibly<br />
grateful for the amazing support<br />
provided by NZCT and our<br />
other funders. The future is<br />
looking bright for hockey in the<br />
region.”<br />
Former Black Stick and current<br />
NZCT trustee Lesley Murdoch<br />
was delighted with the grant.<br />
“I can only wish my generation<br />
had facilities like those planned<br />
for Nunweek Park. It’s fantastic<br />
to be able to give young players<br />
a surface as good as those played<br />
on at the Olympics. It will greatly<br />
improve their development,<br />
provide enjoyment and fun.”<br />
Said NZCT chief executive<br />
Mike Knel: “We’re only able to<br />
make grants like this through<br />
the support of our venues in<br />
Canterbury and the people who<br />
patronise them. Together we<br />
are helping thousands of people<br />
in Canterbury to stay active for<br />
years to come.<br />
“We’re delighted to be able<br />
to help modernise Nunweek<br />
Park, especially for Canterbury’s<br />
young players. I am sure parents<br />
will enjoy the water surfaces’<br />
kinder treatment of their children’s<br />
elbows and knees.”<br />
The two new water turfs will<br />
add to another sand-based<br />
turf already in place. Work is<br />
expected to start in late this<br />
month and be completed by<br />
March.<br />

BRIGHT FUTURE: Talented boxer Bobby Brown (left) was named the best male under-15 fighter at the Australian Golden Gloves tournament in<br />
Brisbane, while four-time New Zealand amateur titleholder Hamuera Tainui, pictured at the nationals earlier this year, won a silver.<br />

14-year-old steps closer to Youth Olympics<br />
• By Chris Barclay<br />
PROMISING teenage boxer<br />
Bobby Brown is on track for<br />
boxing’s Youth Olympics after<br />
his latest win.<br />
The 14-year-old outfought a<br />
two-time national champion<br />
to claim his weight division at<br />
the Australian Golden Gloves<br />
in Brisbane and be crowned<br />
the best male fighter in his age<br />
group.<br />
Brown, from the Woolston<br />
Boxing Club, returned home<br />
with the boys cadet under 57kg<br />
open grade gold medal after<br />
ending Queenslander Chaise<br />
Courtney’s 15-bout unbeaten<br />
run via split decision.<br />
“He had two really, really close<br />
rounds (in the Brisbane final)<br />
and then he pulled it together<br />
and he took the last round<br />
clean,” said coach Holly Sullivan.<br />
Brown, who is targeting the<br />
2026 Summer Youth Olympics<br />
in Dakar, Senegal, swayed the<br />
judges with his superior speed,<br />
fitness and technique.<br />
Sullivan was also impressed<br />
as one of the Woolston club’s<br />
original youth intake in 2016<br />
continues to develop.<br />
“He started fighting at 32kg<br />
or something silly,” she said, expanding<br />
on the long-term goal.<br />
“The Youth Olympics is the<br />
pathway and the goal we’re trying<br />
to put him towards. We want<br />
to keep pushing at New Zealand<br />
Boxing saying: ‘This kid is keen’.”<br />
Brown has a 13-win 7-loss<br />
record and graduates from cadet<br />
to junior class next year.<br />
He then spends two years as a<br />
junior before fighting as a youth.<br />
“His losses have all been<br />
against juniors or heavier<br />
opponents generally, he’s been<br />
stepping up a lot,” Sullivan said.<br />
Brown is now preparing to<br />
represent Canterbury at the<br />
New Zealand amateur national<br />
championships in Whanganui in<br />
October.<br />
Meanwhile, world youth<br />
championships-bound boxer<br />
Hamuera Tainui was one of<br />
Woolston’s six silver medal recipients<br />
after a controversial end<br />
to his bout with Matthew Lyons.<br />
The Australian claimed a<br />
split decision although Sullivan<br />
tried to get the 67kg youth final<br />
replayed the following day after<br />
arguing the bout was shorter<br />
than expected.<br />
“It was meant to be three, three<br />
minutes rounds but they only<br />
fought two minutes,” Sullivan<br />
said.<br />
“I complained mid-fight and<br />
got it resolved afterwards that<br />
they could fight again on the<br />
Sunday. Hamz got to the weigh<br />
in but his opponent refused to<br />
fight. His coach wanted to take<br />
what happened as it.”<br />
Tainui, a multiple New<br />
Zealand Golden Gloves winner,<br />
is bound for Europe, where he<br />
will compete in Serbia’s Youth<br />
Golden Gloves.<br />
“It’s the first time he’ll be<br />
exposed to European fighters and<br />
getting himself in a place where he<br />
can be exposed to the level of boxing<br />
he’s going to come up against<br />
at the worlds,” Sullivan said.<br />
Tainui, 17, returns to New<br />
Zealand for the nationals in<br />
Whanganui and then heads back<br />
to Europe for the World Youth<br />
Boxing Championships in La<br />
Nucia, Spain, in November.<br />
Sullivan said $40,000 had<br />
been raised to fund Tainui’s<br />
Australian, Serbian and Spanish<br />
experience, about $10,000 short<br />
of the goal.<br />
“We’ve got a couple of avenues<br />
we’re still pushing towards,”<br />
Sullivan said.<br />
“We’ll just keep asking people<br />
for help.”<br />

Treasures from the past:<br />
John Dyer’s <strong>Bay</strong><br />
ON AUGUST 10, 1849, the<br />
hotly-contested Port Cooper<br />
Deed was signed by 18 Ngāi<br />
Tahu rangatira and the<br />
Government surveyor Walter<br />
Mantell, with the British Crown<br />
acquiring 65,000 acres around<br />
Whakaraupō <strong>Harbour</strong> for just<br />
£200.<br />
THe Canterbury Association’s<br />
pilgrims followed in quick<br />
succession with immigrant<br />
ships arriving in Lyttelton<br />
port from late 1850 through<br />
1851. Processing through<br />
the port town’s immigration<br />
barracks, many moved on to the<br />
Canterbury Plains beyond the<br />
Port Hills, while others took up<br />
newly acquired lands around the<br />
harbour.<br />
The first pākehā settlers, of<br />
what eventually became today’s<br />
Governors <strong>Bay</strong>, were Robert and<br />
Mary Harris with their large<br />
family, who arrived on June 9,<br />
1851. They were followed in late<br />
1851 by one John Dyer, his sister<br />
Mary Ann and their good friend<br />
Charles Parsons, all aged in their<br />
20s. These young adventurers<br />
arrived aboard the Canterbury<br />
Association’s 16th ship, Canterbury,<br />
on October 18, 1851.<br />
Having pre-purchased 50 acres<br />
of land before leaving Britain,<br />
John Dyer and his erstwhile<br />
companions moved on to their<br />
new home where the Lyttelton<br />
track met an old Māori track<br />
that wound its way up and over<br />
Pukeatua (later Dyers Pass)<br />
to the plains beyond. Charles<br />
purchased the 24-acre lot next<br />
door and down to the water’s<br />
edge, and together with John and<br />
Mary Ann, they built Parakiraki<br />
Stoke Farm where they planted<br />
the first stone fruit orchards in<br />
Canterbury.<br />
For the first six months they<br />
lived in tents as they built the<br />
earliest sections of the historic<br />
Waitahuna Homestead, where<br />
they lived together for the next<br />
three years of hard toil. When<br />
Charles and Mary Ann married<br />
on April 25, 1855, John moved<br />
View of Governors <strong>Bay</strong>. Postcard sent on December 24, 1909. Te Ūaka The Lyttelton Museum ref. 7942.1<br />
https://www.teuaka.org.nz/online-collection/11281<strong>07</strong><br />
out and built his own house further<br />
up the hill. With the success<br />
of their orchard enterprise, John<br />
also bought a sweeping section<br />
of land where the Governors<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> School now stands and all<br />
the way down to the water – and<br />
thus it was that this place also<br />
came to be known as Dyer’s <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />
As many more settlers arrived<br />
to farm the area, Whakaraupō<br />
quickly became the market garden<br />
for the growing population<br />
in Christchurch city.<br />
In 1856 the Provincial Council<br />
provided funds for the construction<br />
of a bridle track from<br />
Lyttelton out to Dyer’s <strong>Bay</strong> and<br />
beyond. At John Dyer’s instigation,<br />
the council also provided<br />
for a survey of the historic Māori<br />
path up and over the pass, with<br />
work on the road finally beginning<br />
in 1862.<br />
With his local knowledge,<br />
Dyer advised the engineers and<br />
surveyors on the best routes,<br />
and even provided meals for the<br />
workers.<br />
Once the roads were completed,<br />
travellers needed to traverse<br />
Stoke Farm for either route.<br />
With John Dyer being such an<br />
affable chap he would often make<br />
a point of greeting wayfarers,<br />
and so the cattle road up the hill<br />
came to be known as Dyer’s Pass<br />
Rd, being formally gazetted as<br />
such in 1911.<br />
In 1860, John married one<br />
Miss Elizabeth Frances Gray,<br />
newly arrived from Britain, and<br />
the two set about the task of<br />
raising a family.<br />
Also in 1860, a stone church<br />
was built at the centre of the<br />
growing village that was now<br />
more often referred to as Governor’s<br />
(both with and without the<br />
apostrophe) rather than Dyer’s<br />
<strong>Bay</strong>, although the latter appears<br />
to have remained in local usage<br />
until about 1863.<br />
As the years passed, Mary<br />
Ann became well known for her<br />
charitable works for the church<br />
and parsonage, while Elizabeth<br />
gave birth to five children, with<br />
Charles and John developing<br />
their farm holdings. Crushed<br />
between a bullock and a gate in<br />
1872, John Dyer survived this<br />
mishap, but the hard colonial life<br />
on the farm had taken its toll. He<br />
died on January 6, 1876, aged<br />
just 48 years.<br />

PowerUp your workplace with women<br />
IN A tight labour market, there’s<br />
a way to ease the squeeze for<br />
employers – women. There is a<br />
deep and experienced pool of<br />
talent available in Christchurch,<br />
yet economists estimate that<br />
approximately 20,000 women are<br />
either underemployed or underutilised<br />
in the workforce.<br />
After identifying that a lack<br />
of localised information and<br />
confidence are key reasons<br />
women hold back from seeking<br />
employment, ChristchurchNZ’s<br />
PowerUp initiative was born.<br />
Centred around getting women<br />
to a regionalised information<br />
hub at www.powerupyourcareer.<br />
co.nz, it’s designed to inform,<br />
inspire and connect them to a<br />
meaningful career by stepping<br />
them through a career journey fit<br />
for them.<br />
PowerUp comes at a critical<br />
time for businesses as they cry<br />
out for skilled workers in the<br />
labour shortage crunch. There<br />
is a record high number of jobs<br />
available in Christchurch, with<br />
a 33 percent increase in jobs<br />
advertised online between 2021<br />
and <strong>2022</strong>, with manufacturing,<br />
tech, primary industries,<br />
construction and healthcare<br />
skills most in demand.<br />
Yet the skills employers are<br />
looking for may not be what you<br />
expect. It is, in fact, transferable<br />
skills that fill up 80 per cent<br />
powerupyourcareer.co.nz<br />
of job ads.<br />
Untouched World founder and<br />
chief executive Peri Drysdale<br />
understands the<br />
need to support<br />
women into<br />
roles they may<br />
(incorrectly)<br />
perceive they’re<br />
not qualified for,<br />
and advocates<br />
for potential<br />
employees to<br />
back themselves,<br />
Peri<br />
Drysdale<br />
be open to learning and prepared<br />
to work their way up.<br />
YOUR FUTURE<br />
“First and foremost, we look<br />
for a can-do attitude, great work<br />
ethic, loyalty, and positivity.<br />
Having a growth<br />
mindset and a<br />
willingness to<br />
pitch in with<br />
tasks that might<br />
lie outside<br />
your position<br />
Charlotte<br />
Walshe<br />
description can<br />
go a long way<br />
to helping you<br />
achieve your<br />
career goals.”<br />
Jade Software chief executive<br />
Charlotte Walshe has a similar<br />
sentiment, and says the job application<br />
process is gaining a skill<br />
in itself.<br />
“Challenge yourself to do what<br />
feels uncomfortable or just outside<br />
what you might think is your<br />
reach. Make it a goal and make<br />
a plan. Even if you don’t quite<br />
get there the first attempt, you’ll<br />
learn a load and make yourself<br />
ready for the next one,” Walshe<br />
says.<br />
And while it’s important for<br />
women to promote their transferable<br />
skills, it’s also a job hunter’s<br />
market and employers need to<br />
showcase their own offerings to<br />
appeal to the right people.<br />
Canterbury Employers’ Chamber<br />
of Commerce chief executive<br />
Leeann Watson says employers<br />
have to be prepared to tell their<br />
story and explain their purpose<br />
to a new generation of workers,<br />
who are more likely to be concerned<br />
about their work aligning<br />
with their values.<br />
“In this market, you are being<br />
interviewed as much as you are<br />
interviewing,” Watson said.<br />
Another Christchurch-based<br />
employer adapted their job advert<br />
to focus more on the company<br />
culture and had an extraordinary<br />
response both in the volume and<br />
quality of candidates – receiving<br />
over 100 applications. A similar<br />
job was advertised by another<br />
company who received just 10<br />
applicants.<br />
To help employers grow<br />
their staff, ChristchurchNZ are<br />
currently running a series of<br />
workshops focusing on diversity,<br />
equity and inclusion. Aimed at<br />
small-to-medium-sized businesses,<br />
they will support managers<br />
and CEOs in fostering inclusive<br />
workplaces and open them up to<br />
invaluable diverse thinking.<br />
The workshops will run<br />
from August to October and<br />
details will be available on<br />
powerupyourcareer.co.nz soon.<br />

We’re widening the road and installing safety barriers in several more<br />
high-risk locations to make Dyers Pass Road safer for everyone.<br />
We know the work is disruptive and we’ve listened to your feedback<br />
from stage one. Changes have been made to improve traffic flow<br />
while we’re working.<br />
If you can, we encourage road users to detour via the Lyttelton<br />

20 minutes plus travel time. Look out for the electronic<br />

Ara graduate’s start-up helps the desk-bound<br />
NEW ZEALAND is recognised<br />
internationally as a country<br />
where students from around<br />
the world can gain a worldclass<br />
education, and then move<br />
into a range of fields where, in<br />
collaboration with colleagues,<br />
they can develop ideas and<br />
solutions for problems facing<br />
the local and global community.<br />
Here in Christchurch, the Ara<br />
Institute of Canterbury provides<br />
international students with the<br />
opportunity to study in a supportive<br />
and flexible environment<br />
that fosters innovation and<br />
creativity.<br />
One example is Henry<br />
Nguyen, who came to New Zealand<br />
from Vietnam in 2015 to<br />
study at Ara. Henry says he was<br />
drawn to New Zealand both for<br />
the scenery and the reputation of<br />
our education sector.<br />
“New Zealand is a gorgeous<br />
country and Kiwis are so friendly.<br />
The course at Ara was good,<br />
but the people I got to study<br />
beside were better – everyone is<br />
innovative and helpful. People<br />
respect you and want you to<br />
grow.”<br />
In 2018, Engineering New<br />
Zealand named Henry student<br />
engineer of the year. Then,<br />
after completing his Bachelor<br />
of Engineering Technology, he<br />
worked in Christchurch as a<br />
mechanical design engineer. It<br />
was in this job Henry noticed<br />
he spent a lot of time at his desk<br />
without moving.<br />
“I had foot and back pain, and<br />
I couldn’t find anything that<br />
really helped me.”<br />
This led to his launch of a<br />
start-up called Vanteks in 2021,<br />
with his first product being the<br />
Senpro 1, a simple device that<br />
monitors desk posture, giving<br />
alerts when a correction or<br />
rest is needed.<br />
It also fulfilled a lifelong<br />
passion for Henry: “I always<br />
wanted to be an inventor.”<br />
Henry developed Senpro<br />
1 in about two weeks, and<br />
went straight into testing. The<br />
device is now being trialled by<br />
ChristchurchNZ (the economic<br />
development agency), as well as<br />
at EverYellow, MenuAid, The<br />
Buzz Club, and the Ministry of<br />
Awesome.<br />
“I’m really proud to launch this<br />
technology,” Henry says, “and<br />
I want to grow the business. I<br />
know this can have an impact on<br />
people around the world.”<br />
In developing Senpro 1, Henry<br />
was able to draw on the creative<br />
techniques he developed during<br />
his study, and on his connections<br />
17<br />
INNOVATION:<br />
Henry Nguyen<br />
displays the<br />
device he<br />
invented to<br />
monitor desk<br />
posture.<br />
from Ara. For anyone looking to<br />
come to New Zealand to study or<br />
start a business, Henry encourages<br />
them.<br />
“New Zealand is a great<br />
country, and there’s so much<br />
support. People are willing to<br />
help start-ups, they genuinely<br />
care and they want you to<br />
succeed. It’s part of the Kiwi<br />
culture.”<br />

Hybrid SUV with a point of difference<br />
IF YOU THINK the cost of fuel is<br />
taxing the household budget now,<br />
I read recently that motor industry<br />
commentators were expecting<br />
prices to fluctuate for months to<br />
come.<br />
That’s where electric vehicles<br />
and hybrids come in, cutting<br />
down the use of petrol is on the<br />
minds of almost everyone and<br />
there is no better time to buy a<br />
hybrid. What’s more there is no<br />
better time to make that purchase<br />
the new generation Mitsubishi<br />
Outlander PHEV; from $60,990 all<br />
three models in the PHEV range<br />
qualify for a $5750 New Zealand<br />
Government Clean Car Rebate.<br />
This evaluation focuses on the<br />
range-topping VRX that is listed at<br />
$73,990 and was carrying a couple<br />
of high-grade extras – light grey<br />
cross-stitched leather trim and<br />
diamond flake paint that together<br />
adds around an extra $1500.<br />
By the time you add in on-road<br />
costs, the Outlander PHEV in this<br />
form is sitting towards the luxury<br />
car bracket and it’s fair to say that<br />
it is very much a luxury model,<br />
it has an extremely high level of<br />
fitment and the cabin area is plush<br />
and comforting – a lot to do with<br />
the prestige of that light leather.<br />
I particularly like it and I like the<br />
feel from inside, it is Mitsubishi’s<br />
flagship SUV and it’s worthy of the<br />
near $80k price tag.<br />
What is also very tempting<br />
is Mitsubishi’s fuel use claim of<br />
1.6-litres per 100km. Sure, that’s<br />
at best possible usage, but like all<br />
hybrids the Outlander is frugal, it<br />
is so thrifty that it is hard to fathom<br />
that we are talking about a big SUV<br />

and a lot of off-the-seal potential.<br />
There are dials and buttons that can<br />
quickly alter the driveline settings<br />
so that cross-country travel can<br />
be tailored to suit the impending<br />
conditions.<br />
As its nomenclature suggests,<br />
the Outlander PHEV is a plugin<br />
hybrid. No surprises there,<br />
Mitsubishi launched the PHEV<br />
here in 2014 and since then it has<br />
become the plug-in benchmark.<br />
It stole the lead, and eight years<br />
later it is still turning heads with<br />
its technology and quality. It is all<br />
new for <strong>2022</strong>, there is a fresh, curvy<br />
shape and its interior has been<br />
redesigned to provide optimum<br />
user-friendly status.<br />
As plug-ins have become more<br />
popular, so has my ability to<br />
relax with them. Charging is easy<br />
and, what’s more, Mitsubishi has<br />
provided a home charging cable<br />
of decent length – 5m to be exact.<br />
I don’t have a designated wallbox<br />
or charging system at my home,<br />
so it’s a matter of using the long<br />
cable and plugging into a standard<br />
three-pin socket located on the<br />
wall of my garage. It’s a fair distance<br />
to the car which is why the long<br />
cable is so important to me; and,<br />
of course, a type 2 to type 2 cable<br />
is also included for when you have<br />
the need to connect to a designated<br />
public-use charge port.<br />
The distance you can travel on<br />
electric only mode is claimed by<br />
Mitsubishi to be up to 84km, that<br />
sits well with the readout during<br />
my time with the test car although<br />
on a cold morning that distance<br />
is slightly reduced, but with the<br />
MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER VRX: Choice of conventional engine or a plug-in hybrid driveline.<br />
warmth of the day it lengthens.<br />
There’s no fear of range anxiety<br />
either, if battery capacity is<br />
depleted the petrol engine kicks in<br />
and normal transmission resumes,<br />
fossil fuel drive is motivated. On a<br />
full tank a readout indicates around<br />
500km can be travelled before the<br />
petrol tank needs replenishing.<br />
The Outlander’s hybrid driveline<br />
is far from simple, it’s a twin motor<br />
system, one up front and one at the<br />
rear, there’s also a 2.4-litre fourcylinder<br />
engine that drives through<br />
an eight-step continuously variable<br />
transmission.<br />
Mitsubishi claims a power output<br />
of 98kW with 195Nm of torque,<br />
while these figures may seem a<br />
little modest you have to take into<br />
account there is a wealth of power<br />
and torque through electrical<br />
supply pumping the figures up by<br />
85kW/100kW and 255Nm/195Nm<br />
front to rear respectively. You can<br />
sure feel the surge of the latter under<br />
acceleration, the combined force<br />
from the engine and motor is quite<br />
vivid, especially in power mode.<br />
Out of all the drive modes<br />
the one I liked the most was the<br />
designated one-pedal EV mode, it<br />
ushers in acceleration willingly, but<br />
also provides solid braking impetus<br />
as soon as the throttle pedal is<br />

• Fuel usage – 1.6l/100km<br />
disengaged, it’s quite a reassuring<br />
feeling.<br />
I took the Outlander PHEV on<br />
much of my normal route inland<br />
towards Darfield, the weather was<br />
grim with heavy rain and wind,<br />
but I felt entirely comfortable with<br />
its manners on the road, there is<br />
healthy feedback at the steering<br />
wheel, and even with a lot of water<br />
under the big 20in tyres there was<br />
a strong feeling of accuracy when<br />
corners were presented.<br />
There’s also a strong feeling of<br />
connection between driver and the<br />
road, a lot of that has to do with<br />
the complexity of the suspension,<br />
while the spring and damper rates<br />
“The Diamond Dealer award was<br />
an outstanding result achieved by the<br />
whole team at Christchurch Mitsubishi,”<br />
are biased towards that luxury feel<br />
I alluded to earlier, there is enough<br />
compliance in the system so that<br />
bumps are ruts are dealt to, but<br />
stability isn’t compromised, the<br />
body structure is held level.<br />
I had the evaluation car in my<br />
care for a week and I very early<br />
grew to enjoy its rather special<br />
characteristics, not only is it more<br />
than just one vehicle, all that it<br />
can achieve it does so very well.<br />
Sure, the two rear seats are a bit<br />
confining for those large of stature,<br />
but it’s no different to any other<br />
seven-seater of this size, rear<br />
load space is still very generous<br />
at 472-litres with the third row of<br />
seats flat – spanning to 1373-litres<br />
with the second row down.<br />
If the Outlander PHEV is out<br />
of reach financially, bear in mind<br />
that much the same driveline is<br />
available in the Eclipse Cross,<br />
Mitsubishi’s mid-size SUV, and<br />
from $52,990 it is a lot more<br />
affordable. It also qualifies for a<br />
$5750 rebate.<br />
I know two people who own an<br />
Outlander hybrid and both are<br />
thrilled with their purchase. That’s<br />
no surprise, the Outlander has long<br />
been one of my favourite SUVs,<br />
and the hybrid version is just the<br />
icing on the cake.<br />
City dealership wins Mitsubishi award<br />
Barr said.<br />
“These awards are<br />
ferociously competitive<br />
and this goes to<br />
show the high level of<br />
customer service the<br />
team at Christchurch<br />
Mitsubishi offers.”<br />
General manager of<br />
the dealership, Steve<br />
Hammond, said everyone<br />
at the dealership<br />
was thrilled with<br />
the award.<br />
“These are awarded<br />
for dealership<br />
excellence in all<br />
aspects of the business<br />
– service, parts,<br />
sales and customer<br />
service. We are so<br />
proud of the whole<br />
team at Christchurch<br />
Mitsubishi, who work tirelessly every day.<br />
This award is recognition for all their work.<br />
This award is for them,” Hammond said.<br />
SUCCESS: Mathew Barr (left)<br />

FEATURED ARTIST<br />
JANE DOWNES<br />
BIOGRAPHY<br />
Jane is a full time sculptor/designer<br />
working from her home workshop<br />
in Little River on Banks Peninsula,<br />
Canterbury. Jane’s current practice<br />
consists of small, medium and large<br />
indoor and outdoor works made<br />
in steel.<br />
Sculptures are constructed from parts of<br />
plasma cut and formed from sheet steel and<br />
profiles, rather than working in the ‘full round’<br />
- Jane calls this style ‘2 1/2D’. This enables<br />
her to utilise scrap sheet metal and other<br />
discarded materials. Jane exhibits at galleries<br />
and major sculpture events throughout<br />
New Zealand and undertakes site and client<br />
specific sculpture commissions as well as<br />
selling smaller works online.<br />
forms in her work that resonate with her,<br />
both natural and manmade. Often common<br />
or from childhood, sometimes delicate and<br />
fleeting objects from nature, sometimes robust<br />
geometric forms from popular culture and<br />
industry. Specific themes in her work include<br />
colonisation, security and shelter, along with<br />
more abstract themes commenting on the<br />
human condition, challenging preconceptions<br />
of purpose and beauty, valuable and lowly,<br />
masculine and feminine, permanence and<br />
the ephemeral. These dichotomies are also<br />
reflected in her use of recycled, found and<br />
industrial materials. Jane believes in making her<br />
work accessible and so most of her pieces are<br />
unlimited editions.<br />
Jane’s husband Mario, with his knowledge<br />
of materials and engineering, aswell as his<br />
installation skills plays a large part in her<br />
work. Jane is interested in feelings evoked<br />
by shape, form and pattern, how we react<br />
to scale and light and the influence this has<br />
on art, architecture and design. Jane uses<br />

THANK YOU<br />
TO OUR GENEROUS<br />
SPONSORS<br />
Ferry Road<br />
This year’s proceeds from The Mt Pleasant<br />
Art Exhibition fundraiser will go directly<br />
towards new technology for the school to<br />
support learning within classrooms.<br />
READ MORE FROM NEW PRINCIPAL DONNA ELLERY BELOW...<br />
Now that the Mt Pleasant School<br />
turf has been fully funded,<br />
thanks to overwhelming community<br />
support and various grants,<br />
the top item on the school’s<br />
list is...TECHNOLOGY<br />
With the implementation of the new Digital<br />
Technologies curriculum, staff at Te Kura<br />
O Paeraki/Mt Pleasant School have been<br />
engaged with professional development in this<br />
area since the beginning of 2021. Teachers and<br />
students have become actively engaged in the<br />
design of digital learning across a variety of<br />
different platforms.<br />
As teachers and students across the school<br />
have increased their digital fluency, it has<br />
become important for us to have access to<br />
an equitable number of devices. Equity of<br />
devices will ensure that all our students have<br />
the opportunity to become digitally capable,<br />
enabling them to become creators rather than<br />
purely users of technology. We would like to<br />
increase our technology with the help of our<br />
community and the PTA run initiatives this<br />
year. Having an additional technology boost,<br />
alongside the ongoing school funding,<br />
will help us get technology and devices<br />
at a more effective level for the children.<br />
All of the technology is used to;<br />
• support learning within classrooms and is<br />
a highly motivating and powerful tool when<br />
teaching the core curriculum areas.<br />
• give all students equal access and the<br />
opportunity to learn alongside their peers.<br />
• help students requiring extra support with<br />
their learning to have a platform that they<br />
could successfully engage with, working<br />
alongside their peer group in a confident,<br />
inclusive manner.<br />
• engage with meaningful and collaborative<br />
transdisciplinary learning experiences across<br />
our curriculum.<br />
• provide students with the knowledge to<br />
become creators of digital solutions.<br />
How can you contribute?<br />
