Local CHCH Community Group meetings
Dear Local Residents' Associations and Community Groups in CHCH,
I would like to invite you to 2 local community meetings coming up in April and May.
Firstly, I am pleased to invite you to a 'SCRAM' (South Chch Residents Association meet up) event on Thursday, 11th April at the Beckenham Service Centre Boardroom from 10 am to 12 pm.
During this first event, we will have the opportunity to suggest any topics that concern your group as a whole for an open discussion. (This event has conveniently been scheduled after two other community-based meetings, including one with Mayor Phil Mauger and the Waitaha Community Led Development.)
We hope this SCRAM event will be beneficial for the Long-Term Plan consultation processes for CCC and ECAN and generally help our community groups to stay better connected, especially if required for emergency preparedness purposes.
Secondly, SCERT (Somerfield Community Emergency Response Team) have organised a meeting in May, we would also like to invite you or your community group to our SCERT public information event, to be held on Thursday, 30th May, from 7-9 pm.
SCERT welcomes any residents or new groups in any area to join us for this also, so you may independently promote your community group in St Mark's Hall, 5 Somerfield Street.
Please refer to the posters attached for more information on either event.
If you would like to attend or share either /any of these events with other local community groups, please message me or join our event page(s).
Best regards,
Julie Tobbell.
Somerfield Residents Association Chairperson.
Cell 027 272 1063. (text first please)

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
