Thanks to the brave and quick actions of these members of the public (pictured centre and centre right) – an offender who was trying to make a getaway after stealing money from a Henderson dairy was stopped and swiftly arrested. 👏

Earlier this month, one of the owners of the store was working behind the counter when a man entered the store and demanded money.

He walked behind the counter to the cash register and took a large sum of money, but the owner very quickly managed to activate the anti-theft smoke canon and the offender fled the shop.

Seeing what happened, the members of the public chased the offender and caught him, holding him until Police arrived soon afterwards.

He was then arrested and taken into custody.

A 40-year-old man has been charged with theft and was due to appear in the Waitakere District Court last week.

The money taken was returned to the dairy owners (pictured on the left), who were very grateful to those who stepped in to help.

A great result and example of people going above and beyond to look out for people in their local community.

Dear Neighbors,

We have recently moved to CHCH with our 4yr old and are renting in cashmere. What a beautiful suburb! My Husband and I would like to buy our forever home up here! But it seems there is not much on the market :(. We would love a 3-4br home with a garage and ideally some flat land for our daughter to play and views to the mountains. We would like either a beautiful weather board home, mid-century home or new architectural designed... so a variety of options :. We have a flexible budget if renos are needed. If you are considering selling or know of some one we would love to hear from you. Thanks so much Marie.

Virinia from Cashmere

My son is a current Cathedral Chorister and my eldest was also prior to going to High School. Prior to last year’s lock down, funding for the administration of the Cathedral came from Tourists - of which there have been none since late March 2020 and will be none in the foreseeable future.

For the remainder of my books, I would welcome a donation to the Cathedral. The support, development and nurturing of my sons is and has been priceless.
I have a variety of children’s books, 5 books related to pregnancy, breast feeding and child care and a variety of Cooking and Recipe Books – see photos for titles.

Text me on 0277078313 for any details and or information.

All books are in excellent condition.
