"Last year, I decided to move to Aldwins House. Since then, I have been residing in a cozy room filled with warm sunshine and a lovely view. The atmosphere here truly feels like home. The staff members at Aldwins House are fantastic. They provide exceptional care, making me feel valued and cherished.
Every day, I find immense joy in the attentive and compassionate care I receive, as well as the interesting activities that allow me to connect with the vibrant community around me. It is through these engagements that I truly feel a sense of belonging and fulfillment.

During a recent visit from my dear sister, her heartfelt words echoed in my heart. She said, "When I see you smile, I know in my heart that you have found the right home." Aldwins House has become a place where my happiness flourishes, and I am grateful for the warm and caring environment it provides."

A Christchurch engineering lecturer says the city councilโ€™s proposed changes to the district plan includes a โ€œmanufacturedโ€ reason to stop developers from building higher density housing.

Tom Logan, a senior lecturer in civil systems engineering at the University of Canterbury, is one of about 1000 people and organisations who have told the city council their views on Plan Change 14 (PC14), which aims to increase housing availability and affordability by cutting red tape.

A final round of submissions closed on Monday, with an independent hearings panel set to begin in October.

The plan change was triggered by new medium density rules set by central government in 2021, which called on large cities like Christchurch to allow up to three homes of three storeys each on most sections across the city.
