Journalism project: Migrant Profile

Charlotte from Halswell

Hiya,
I am a student journalist at the University of Canterbury. One of our assignments coming up is to interact with a new community; an individual or family who has migrated to Christchurch in the last 5 years. I will be writing for the publication The Migrant Times and working with the person to tell their story.
Is there anyone on Neighbourly who might be willing to talk to me or could anyone on here put me in touch with someone who might want to share their story?

Thanks,

Charlotte :)
