Seddon Community and Neighbourhood Support Group
Seddon is our small rural township located to the south of Blenheim on SH1. Rocked and devastated (again) by the quakes in November 2016. With the loss of access to Christchurch via the Main North Line, and SH 1, we are at the “end of the line”. Every one of our self employed residents has taken a huge hit, many of whom can no longer support themselves especially with the removal of all emergency funding as of the 14th February. we are hoping to be able to provide to the whole community, access to essential first aid kits at reasonable and affordable costs to all the residents. It is for this initiative we are seeking some funding in order to subsidise these kits. VOTE NOW!!

This section of the pier column was put under the most stress during the earthquakes, and the damage to the outer concrete and reinforcement has made it more vulnerable to rust and partially reduced its structural strength.

Investigations so far indicate that all the columns have this sort of damage, and over the next year the Council will be heading below sea-level to install new steel and concrete jackets to restore their strength and durability.

New Brighton Pier remains safe to use and is open to the public.
