Covid update - National figures

Gordon from Halswell

Another week with National figures still climbing. It continues to show how easy it is to flare up if we drop our guards

Canterbury rose from 667 to 883 - 216 National figure rose by just under 500 which means we were the largest single portion of the rise
The winter cold and flu might be contributing, and winter is here now.
Stay safe folks.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Addictive Eaters Anonymous

The Team from Addictive Eaters Anonymous - Christchurch

How much does it cost to join AEA?

There are no dues or fees for joining AEA or attending AEA meetings. We are self-supporting through our own voluntary contributions. At some point during each meeting we pass the basket to help cover expenses, such as the cost of rent and literature. Members are not obliged to contribute, but we usually do so to the extent we are able.
