This year Age Concern New Zealand want all New Zealanders to sign up as Age Concern Dignity Champions and stand up for the human rights of older Kiwis.
“There is no excuse for elder abuse, says Stephanie Clare, Age Concern New Zealand Chief Executive. I am appalled that we are still having to deal with cases each day where older people are taken advantage of.
“Just because someone is older it doesn’t mean they are less valuable, have less purpose or should lose basic human rights, the right to make their own choices and respect from those around them.
“Of the cases we see, 75% of alleged abusers are family members, either adult children or partners of adult children and that needs to stop!
“So come on Kiwis we all have a part to play. You can take a stand against ageism and join me by signing up today!” says Stephanie.
An Age Concern Dignity Champion pledges to:
• Reject stereotypes and focus on the uniqueness of every individual
• Speak up when they hear people speaking negatively about growing old
• Have the courage to question practices they feel are disrespectful to older people
• Not patronise older people
• Be patient, polite and friendly
• Have zero tolerance for abuse or neglect
• Build relationships – they combat isolation and loneliness by getting to know the older people in their lives.

Do you fancy year-round summer hours?
The European Union will soon recommend members drop daylight saving hours in favour of staying on summer time throughout the year.

On Sunday 9th September at approx. 2pm I was sitting stationary at the roundabout on New Brighton Road turning left into Bassett Street when I was hit from behind. The person I was hit by did stop, but unfortunately gave me a bogus number. I'm now left to cover the excess unless anyone else saw this and can help. There were several other vehicles at the time that witnessed this. I was driving a dark gunmetal Grey Holden and the car in question was a white Toyota Wish. If Anyone remembers seeing this and can help it would be greatly received. Many Thanks

This car (rego AFC 499) was dumped in Champion St about 2 1/2 months ago. Road tax has expired. Called CCC to have it removed. They say they can't do anything because (incredibly) it still has a WOF that does not expire until January 2019.

They say they can't do anything because (incredibly) it still has a WOF that does not expire until January 2019. So in total we are looking at having this piece of trash on our street for over 6 months. This I might add is the same council that won't empty your bin if the lid is open half an inch. Can't do anything? How about getting onto the owner and telling them if it is not moved it will be towed and destroyed?

Plastic supermarket bags and Tetra Pak cartons will no longer be accepted in Christchurch's kerbside recycling bin. The City Council has said it is not in a position to accept the items in the yellow bins. Click here to read more about this.
These items now have to go in the red rubbish bin, however plastic bags can be dropped off at special recycling bins at supermarkets. Visit ccc.govt.nz for a full list of what can be recycled.
