Ashley Church: 150th Anniversary - 7 pm Tuesday 29 June
Time to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the consecration by Bishop Harper on 29 June 1871. Paul Askin will lead a short interdenominational service in the Church tonight. Guest speakers will outline the key phases of the building's history including its salvage and restoration nearly 50 years ago. Supper will be served afterwards with birthday cake! Entry is free but donations to cover costs will be appreciated. Still some seats left. Just a reminder that there is no toilet at the Church but we will have heating tonight.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?
The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.
Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.
We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
-
9.4% For. Self-service is less frustrating and convenient.
-
43.6% I want to be able to choose.
-
47.1% Against. I want to deal with people.
Poll: Would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? 🌿🐦
Canterbury, you have a hidden treasure right on your doorstep ... though it does come with a 1.5-hour walk up the stunning Rakaia Gorge Walkway.
Along the trail you’ll find The Fantail Shop showcasing small artworks by local artisans. Even better, every purchase supports the Fantail Trust, helping protect and restore biodiversity on the north bank of the gorge.
So we’re curious: would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? (And for local biodiversity, of course 🌿)
-
32.4% Yes!
-
67.6% No thank you.
