Experience the Ryman Care Difference

It’s hard to put your finger on why Ryman care centres just feel different. Perhaps it’s our constant drive to improve through innovations such as our myRyman Care app and Delicious menu, or perhaps it’s the genuine warmth of the care we provide.

Happy Monday neighbours,

It’s a Christchurch institution that is older than the cathedral and the electric tram, and now Ice Cream Charlie plans to go nationwide.

Have you had a scoop from the iconic ice cream van?

Founded in 1903 – one year before Christ Church Cathedral was completed – the company has been serving its famous Vanilla Ices from its cart in Armagh St on Victoria Square for generations.

On Sunday Mayor Lianne Dalziel unveiled the family firm’s new cart, Peggy, which replaces the old one which was built in the 1950s.

Did you manage to snag one of 1000 free ice creams over the weekend?

Hi neighbours,

'Twas 18 nights before Christmas, when all through Santa’s grotto not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

Apart from burglars, that is, who broke into Santa’s outpost in Christchurch and apparently tried to steal Christmas right from under the noses of his little helpers, who were sleeping safely at home.

When they arrived at the grotto on Tuesday morning they found the lights on and the back door tampered with.

Fortunately, the burglars were not able to access the grotto's main room, full of its floats and decorations.
