Three of Christchurch's leading mayoral hopefuls will face-off in a public debate in the city centre.

Lianne Dalziel, John Minto and Darryll Park will lock horns at a forum hosted by the Canterbury Chamber of Commerce at The Piano.

Dalziel, Minto and Park were invited to take part after polling indicated they are leading the 13-strong field of mayoral contenders.

The forum is supported by The Press and the MC will be broadcast journalist Sacha McNeil.

The September 4 forum runs from 5pm to 7.30pm.

It is open to the public and free but registration is essential. Email registration@cecc.org.nz or by phone at 03 366 5096.

Morning Aches Are Optional - Let’s Start the Year Sleeping Better

Marketing Manager from Beds4U - Hornby

Hey neighbours,

Waking up with sore shoulders and stiff mornings? Here’s the plot twist - it might actually be your mattress (and pillow) letting you down.

It’s the perfect time to upgrade. New Year, New Bed! Our Boxing Day Sale is still on, so why not treat yourself to a mattress that actually supports you and helps you wake up refreshed? Side sleeper? Back sleeper? Tossing and turning? We’ve got tips and solutions for every kind of snoozer.

Don’t settle for mornings that hurt, your bed should work with you, not against you. Curious about how your mattress could be affecting your shoulders? Check out our blog: beds4u.co.nz...
