Community collaboration has led to an online resource to help people tackle mental health issues.
Social Services Waimakariri, Together Hurunui and the Waimakariri and Hurunui district councils have joined forces to create the nextsteps.org.nz website, which brings together information about North Canterbury’s social services.
Waimakariri District Council community development facilitator Rachel Thornton said the new online resource came out of the Covid-19
experience.
The website built on the Ministry for Social Development funded community connector service, known locally as the next steps facilitator service, she said.
‘‘After Covid there were a number of vulnerable people and the challenge we had was how do we get information out to them.’’
The website allowed people to help themselves to take the next steps to improve their mental wellbeing.
‘‘Those of us who work in the social service sector, we know who the counsellors are, but the general public doesn’t necessarily know, so how do we make it easy for them?’’
Social Services Waimakariri facilitator Nicki Carter said the website showcased all of the social service and community organisations serving the North Canterbury area.
It was designed to avoid duplication and to use resources more efficiently.
‘‘In the Waimakariri we are national leaders in this space, so it is definitely a concept which might get picked up elsewhere in the country.’’
Waimakariri mayor Dan Gordon said the new website was a great resource for the community.
‘‘While the initial shock of Covid-19 is gone we know this will not be the last event our country faces and it is important we learn from previous events.
"Having all this information in one place, with support specific to North Canterbury, is a fantastic resource and I applaud all our communities’ providers for working together to make this happen.
‘‘The information is non-threatening, accessible and provided in an empowering way that will connect with a lot of our residents when they need support.’’
The website posed questions to direct people to the help they needed and was entirely online and anonymous, Thornton said.
It begins by asking if you are in immediate danger (call 111) or just need to talk (call / text 1737).
The website has sections including physical, mental and emotional wellbeing, economic and business, and family and social.

The Waimakariri district has celebrated unity in style.
Members of the local Iranian community joined forces with Global Locals of Waimakariri (Glow) and the Waimakariri District Council’s community team to organise an art competition.
Mayor Dan Gordon said the competition was ‘‘a truly wonderful collaboration’’.
‘‘Our district continues to grow and as a result we are honoured to welcome many new families from other parts of the world, as I do regularly at citizenship ceremonies.
‘‘Their arrival enriches our communities and provides us all with the opportunity to embrace new cultures.’’
Race Unity Day is marked in New Zealand on March 21, to coincide with Iranian New Year.
Members of the Iranian community came up with the idea of an art competition, inviting local school children to create a poster depicting what the theme ‘‘celebrating different cultures’’ meant to them.
It was the first time the Waimakariri District Council had been involved in events to coincide with Race Unity Day and community development facilitator Caroline Boswell said she was blown away by the response.
‘‘We had more than 120 entries which is pretty for the first year and is far more than we anticipated.’’
She says the competition was made possible with support from the Ministry for Ethnic Communities.
Gordon said he was impressed with the calibre of the entries.
‘‘I have to say I am extremely impressed with the calibre of work and the interesting way the brief has been interpreted, showcasing what celebrating different cultures means to them.
‘‘It is my hope that this will be the first of many for our district.’’
A prizegiving was held in the council chambers recently to celebrate the success of the competition.
Fernside School, near Rangiora, took home a special prize for the most entries.

Upto A3 size Scan/ Print /Copy
It comes including 4 new compatible ink cartridges ( 3 black 1 blue)
It was functioning fine before being put in storage for over a year ago, print heads will probably need cleaning,
It is showing ink cartilages empty , so HP wont let it print with empty cartridges,
HP has been taken to court many times in the past for stopping the use of empty or refilled cartridges, as it is against the law to prevent the use of refills,and due to this there is some sort of way to bypass the HP software. but I don't know how. There is lots of info online.
Or you can just get some new compatible cartridges, that are easily available and it should work fine.
Just $50 as I need the space. the 4 included free cartridges are worth over $100 by themselves, so grab a bargain.
