Kia ora Linwood Central Heathcote!

What a fantastic year it’s been out here in our ‘hood!

We at the Linwood Central Heathcote Community Board and Council want to thank you all for another amazing year with our one-of-a-kind community!

This year’s wins have highlighted the importance of a strong community. These wins include the decision of the site of the Bays Area Skate Park, the Opawa Volunteer Library, the Woolston Community Centre and the amendment to the Christchurch District Plan.

The completion of the fantastic two-kilometre promenade following the Avon River from Christchurch Hospital through to the Margaret Mahy Family Playground has symbolised how far our central ward has come.

The only chapel in the world built to honour nurses killed during 20th century wars was reopened after a complex year-long restoration project.

We are so grateful for all of your support in the community, and we cannot wait to see what 2019 brings for us.

Meri Kirihimete and happy holidays!

From the Waikura (Linwood Central Heathcote) Community Board and the Christchurch City Council

Doses of chlorine being used across Christchurch to ensure drinking water is safe will likely be halved next month after city councillors approved the move.

Cutbacks will be made at 60 per cent of the city's pump stations – 40 per cent already have lower doses – reducing the smell and taste of chlorine, particularly for those nearest to wells.

It will also be welcome relief for those with skin conditions such as eczema that are aggravated by the chemical.

Instead of encouraging people to be overly cautious during the silly season, we wanted to share our injury prevention tips in a more interesting way.

Based on the traditional Christmas song we all know and love, we created a video series featuring 12 weird and not so wonderful injuries we saw from last Christmas, and tips on how to avoid them!

Give our 12 Days of ACC Christmas video series a watch. From everyone at ACC we hope you have a very Merry Christmas and happy new year.
