Horowhenua District Council election candidate
Hello. I’m Athol Kirk, an independent election candidate for the Horowhenua District Council, Levin Ward. I write this to tell you a little about myself and why I believe I can be a positive influence in the council.
I have three grandchildren, under 10 years old, living in levin. Observing climate change, here and around the world, has me deeply concerned for the world that my grandies will have to have to live work and survive within. I will work hard to ensure that the council meets, or preferable exceeds, all of its climate change and environmental protection aims. I want the following generations of Horowhenua, New Zealand and all of the world to have a healthy environment to live within.
My Bachelor of Health Science degree, majored in Environmental Risk Management has equipped me with the tools for environmental protection, resource management and public safety.
More and more people and businesses are finding Horowhenua to be an attractive location to live and operate. To accommodate this growth considerable infrastructure needs to be constructed. It will be my aim to ensure that it is planned and constructed with full and deep consideration for the environment and the future

Thompson House Anniversay
A great day at the Thompson House 50th Anniversay today. The Pipes & Drums of Horowhenua came and entertained which was appreciated by many. Great Coffee by the Ambo van, lovely fresh fruit icecream by Freezing Bay, delicious Sausages Sizzle by Menz shed. Finishing up the great and interesting weekend with some Christmas punch and an Anniversary cake to say a big Thank you to the volunteers for all the hard work that helped to make a very successful weekend and allowed many of the Levin Community to reminisce of days gone by and plan for the future. Also a big Thank you Horowhenua Councillors and Council staff who paid us a visit . It was much appreciated by the Thompson House Committee.
