There were a number of ideas to consider for the future of the group which included whether another community garden was needed, the possibility of guest speakers on specialist gardening topics, swapping surplus seeds and plants between members, visiting gardens within the wider community, tutorials on how to create gardens when you have no room for a garden etc.
It was decided to gather more information for the next meeting early next year especially around the need for another community garden or supporting the existing ones. It was a suggestion to invite Michael Reynolds from Roimata Garden Common and Jenny from Opawa Community Garden . Notice of the next meeting will be provided after the Christmas break.

Hi Canterbury neighbours. We are delighted to let you know your region has reached a huge milestone... Canterbury has now cracked the 100,000 member mark on Neighbourly.

The Neighbourly Team would like to thank every one of you for continuing to display your community spirit, especially after another challenging year. The Christchurch Mosque attacks in March showed how much Canterbury residents are prepared to come together to support one another.

We were blown away to see Neighbourly noticeboards filled with people wanting to make a difference in their community - reaching out to neighbours to organise visits to the local mosque and coordinating events to fundraise for the victims.

Canterbury, we hold you close to our hearts. Congratulations on the milestone and thank you for being such great neighbours!

A caring community is one that’s there for us in good times, and in our times of need. That’s the community Hoko and Glenda found at Diana Isaac Retirement Village in Christchurch.

“The staff are absolutely amazing,” explains Glenda. “They go out of their way to speak to you, to make sure you’re ok.”
Hoko and Glenda feel very fortunate for the support they received when Hoko experienced some health issues. It wasn’t just the village staff who provided support, the whole community rallied around them.
“When I got sick the community itself looked after me,” Hoko explains.
“I can’t speak highly enough of the staff here,” Glenda says.
