They are indoor sofas really but we kept a blanket over them to collect the outdoor dust when windy. The brown one is a velvety material and in great condition APART from one arm that the cats scratched down to the wood unbeknown to us as it was under the blanket we had over it. If you have a throw over the sofa it wont show and it is still very serviceable. The other 3 seater is a blue/white floral pattern. No damage but some areas of grubby marks that should wash off with some hot soapy water but again throw a blanket over it and its good to go. Ideal for the bach. Available next week sometime.... tba.... collect. 8 kms NW of Hawarden spcooke@amuri.net Dont seem to be able to upload images properly but can e mail photos to anyone interested

He visits family in Canterbury every three months and has just taken back knitted baby blankets our members donated. He lives in merino, so we are appealing for any kind of natural wool, 4 ply and up, so we can knit blankets and garments for him to take back next visit.

Jack Logan hopes other young people will get to benefit from mental health support as they transition into the workplace.
Logan has benefitted from an online counselling initiative piloted by the Hurunui District Council’s Mayor’s Taskforce for Jobs (MTFJ) programme.
Known as Clearhead, the online platform has been been designed to make it easier for young people to access support.
‘‘I have been getting help with eating problems, so it has been great. I have benefitted a lot,’’ he said.
‘‘It has been awesome.
‘‘It would be good to see it made available for more young people because it has been really helpful’’.
Logan, who lives at Leithfield Beach, has been supported by the MTFJ on and off for the last three years.
He said the cost of counselling could be daunting, while ‘‘amping yourself up’’ to drive to appointments could be stressful.
The Clearhead platform allowed young people to choose from a selection of counsellors to find the right fit.
‘‘It is a bit like eBay for counsellors.’’
As the sessions were online, ‘‘you can be in your own environment’’, he said.
Logan has picked up a few jobs through the taskforce, including a six month spraying contract with the Department of Conservation and tree planting for a season in the hills near Kaikōura.
He has been working at Elliotts Nursery in Amberley for the past year.
He has also been asked to mentor a group of youngsters starting out in the taskforce.
‘‘We have done some cool things.
‘‘I got thrown into a room with some young kids and we were asked to come up with a logo for the Hurunui taskforce for jobs, and we came up with a really cool logo.’’
Hawarden employer Chen Moked has taken on some youngsters through the taskforce and said it was good to have the back up.
‘‘It is hard to get anyone long term, so this really helps to fill the gaps.’’
He said it was good to have the option of getting support for employees, through Clearhead, as business owners did not always have the tools to offer that support.
The Hurunui District Council has been an early adopter of the service.
Mayor Marie Black said young people in rural areas battling mental health issues ran into many challenges, including remaining anonymous.
‘‘Wait times, travel distance, the lack of choice of counsellor. These are all things that effect the chance of whether our young people reach out for help.
‘‘That stigma around asking for help is still very real in small town communities, so having the option to speak with a specialist from a different region will be empowering for these kids.
‘‘Everyone should have access to mental healthcare, no matter where they live. It is a crucial part in making sure fewer young people fall through the gaps.’’

Hanmer Springs has a new fun, family activity - and it’s free.
A nine-hole disc golf course opened at Brooke Dawson Reserve last month and it has already caught the attention of visitors and enthusiasts for the game.
‘‘It has only been open for a couple of weeks, but there is a lot of people going through and the word is getting out,’’ local resident Graham Frith said.
‘‘I’ve had people from Christchurch, Nelson and the West Coast ringing to find out when we will have this course and now I can tell them to come.
‘‘My vision was to have it so everyone staying in the village could do it for free and eventually if we have some guns come here, even better.’’
Frith came up with the idea for a disc golf course while serving on the Hanmer Springs Community Board.
It came at a cost of $7500 to buy the baskets, which were used instead of tees and were installed by volunteers.
Disc golf is like ordinary golf, except you throw a frisbee or disc and aimed to get into the baskets in as few throws as possible.
All you need is a frisbee and some mates, or your family, Frith said.
‘‘The other day three of us went down there with one frisbee. We just took turns throwing it and walked around and had a great chat.’’
Frith has been behind several initiatives in recent years, including the Hanmer Springs food forest and Music and Arts Hanmer Springs.
He was also working on developing mountain bike trails around Mt Isobel.
‘‘I just like to stir things up. If you are not going forward you fall off your bike.’’
Frith says the ideas tend to flow when he is out on his bike.
With a five month cycling tour in Central America planned from next month, more ideas were sure to follow.
‘‘We are travelling through Mexico and I will no doubt see something and think ‘that will work in Hanmer Springs’.’’
The Brooke Dawson Reserve, in Bath Street, Hanmer Springs, has a toilet block and picnic area, making it the ideal spot for families.
There was the option of extending it to an 18-hole course if it proved to be popular.
A map of the course is available on the Hanmer Springs app and on Facebook.
