Local Rebekah Kelly, one several residents on the newly-formed Hurunui Community Development Trust, says a new equity housing scheme will be great for families who had never thought of getting on the property ladder before.

“We want people to be able to live here. It's a great place to live."

The trust aims to build 10 new houses for 10 new families within the next five years.

Families involved with the scheme will be able to offer what they afford for a house, instead of having huge mortgage payments with interest. It will be similar to a rent-to-buy scheme, but the finer details are still being confirmed, Kelly says.

Happy Friday neighbours,

Andrew Luddington is hoping he will have a little luck when he takes on a gruelling ride from Christchurch to Akaroa, all while dressed as Darth Vader.

Luddington is preparing to transform into the Star Wars villain for the upcoming 100-kilometre Miles Continental Le Race cycle event, on an all-steel, 12-speed bike from 1978.

The 55-year-old will be among hundreds of participants at the start line on Saturday, blasting Star Wars music from a megaphone attached to his 40-year-old bike while in full Sith Lord attire.
