The mailboxes of Hinds

Our COVID-19 vaccination team recently delivered flyers to the mid-Canterbury town of Hinds and were quite taken by the charming mailboxes. Here are some of the best they encountered.

Build of new Hillmorton facilities on track

Construction of facilities on the Hillmorton campus to provide a new home for the Seager Clinic, Child and Youth Inpatient unit, Mothers and Babies and Eating Disorders Inpatient unit and Mothers and Babies Eating Disorders Outpatients continues at pace. These new facilities are for services relocating from The Princess Margaret Hospital. Construction began in January and both buildings should be ready for patients in late 2022.

The structure of ‘Building 14’, as its currently known, is well advanced with the roof and external building cladding works due to commence in October. This facility will house the Child and Youth Inpatient unit, Mothers and Babies and Eating Disorders Inpatient unit and Mothers and Babies Eating Disorders Outpatients. The structure work of ‘Building 12’ is now complete with roofing and cladding works due to be completed in the first quarter of 2022. Once complete, this facility will provide mental health rehabilitation inpatient services for longerterm rehab needs including those provided in the existing Seager Clinic. More information on the development at Hillmorton is available on Prism.
