Walking Group
Hey Everyone just if anyone is keen to come for a walk at 4.30pm up Rapaki on Sunday 5th February we have a walking group we started about 3 weeks ago. We normally do it on a Sunday arvo but we look to change the time/day around to mix it up a little which we update on our Facebook page. So it is just a gold coin donation and all goes towards one of our Charities 'Mental Health Foundation' and we are just trying to encourage everyone to get moving. Our Team at Bodyfix have been in the Fitness Industry for some over 30 years now and we realise the importance of keeping our bodies moving :) If you would like to come along feel free you do not have to be a member of the Gym and if you are unsure then please just message on 027 82 39 718 with your name and query :) or we do update our Facebook page so you can keep an eye on there :) www.facebook.com...

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
Poll: Canterbury is thriving on paper... but are you seeing evidence of Canterbury's improving economy?
As reported in the Press, Reserve Bank Governor Anna Breman recently gave a shout-out to our region, calling Canterbury a "stand-out" for how we recover from tough times. With tech firms growing and exporters investing, the business side of things is looking bright!
👉 But we know that "business growth" doesn't always mean the weekly shop gets any cheaper. While the city expands, many families feel like they’re just trying to keep their heads above water.
We want to know: With the business buzz of 2026, do you feel like things are finally looking up for your household, or does it still feel like a climb?
