Our changing climate poses risks to our natural and built environments. Swiss Re in a global analysis of insurance risk said to “expect climate risks to raise global property premiums by 33-41% between 2020 and 2040”. The potential increase was deemed a direct consequence of our changing climate.
Our Climate Insights property report provides easily understood information on change to risks for your current or a future property. The report includes robust and actionable information for residential property owners, tenants and investors to enhance their property’s climate resilience.

Justin Salter says lives are at risk if nothing is done about a busy North Canterbury intersection.

The Rangiora resident was involved in a crash at the intersection of Lehmans and Johns roads last October. His car was hit in the side by another travelling between 80 and 100kmh. The crash could have easily been fatal, he said.
He had given way at the intersection and looked left and right, but did not see the oncoming car due to a blind spot, he said.
Salter admitted he was at fault, but believed the intersection was also dangerous.

An ambitious campaign has been launched to get 90 per cent of eligible Cantabrians jabbed by Labour Weekend – in less than four weeks time.
Businesses have thrown their weight behind the plan, which aims to make Canterbury the most Covid-19 protected region in the country.
Among those backing the campaign is Roger Gray, chief executive of Lyttelton Port Company (LPC), who said Cantabrians should “roll-up their sleeves and get vaccinated”.

If yes to any of these questions, then please see our buyers this week. We will buy single items or complete collections.
The recent lockdown has seen many of us take the time to sort items we no longer require or simply want to turn into cash.
We are currently very short of stock and keen to buy any of these or similar items.
Please see us at any of the multiple venues in the Canterbury area.
Buying now at a venue near you deal with the specialists.

Justin Salter says lives are at risk if nothing is done about a busy North Canterbury intersection.
The Rangiora resident was involved in a crash at the intersection of Lehmans and Johns roads last October. His car was hit in the side by another travelling between 80 and 100kmh. The crash could have easily been fatal, he said.
He had given way at the intersection and looked left and right, but did not see the oncoming car due to a blind spot, he said.
Salter admitted he was at fault, but believed the intersection was also dangerous.
It had multiple blind spots, including a large tree blocking the view on one side of the intersection, and a large hedge blocking the view on the other side.
There was also a 100kmh speed limit, minimal signage and increasing traffic due to North Canterbury’s booming population.
The latest round of grants is ending on 13 October so if you have charitable community organisations in your neighbourhood struggling to fund a specific event, project or initiative, encourage them to apply for a grant through the Harcourts Foundation.
