Mid Canterbury Neighbourhood Support
The Ashburton District is currently busy with roadworks and development galore.
The town centre is gradually emerging from the dust and we have the start of what will be a lovely area once it is all complete.
I am sure businesses will be looking forward to the return of foot traffic and some normality.
Covid, flood and wind events have also set us back this year, so it has been a challenging time for many. Warm weather and Xmas will hopefully provide some happier distractions for the district.
We are running a theft and burglary campaign in the run up to Xmas as a form of prevention, but also to just remind the community that as they pack up and head away for weekends and travels, to be mindful of their property. That is why a Neighbourhood Support group is important. It ensures that people around you can keep an eye on your property, feed animals and check on the security of what is probably your biggest asset – your home. We value our coordinators who do a great job in providing their area with this opportunity. So, from me to the community – stay safe and enjoy the summer.
