Podcasts about South Canterbury

How would you feel if the Government came out and said solar energy is the future and it was going to throw everything at it? Because that's something I think it needs to seriously consider doing. For me, there would only be one fly in the ointment – I'll get to that. But it's not enough for me to say that the Government shouldn't be ploughing money into solar energy. Lodestone Energy is in the news today talking about its latest solar farm, which will cover 42-hectares in the Clandeboye area in South Canterbury. There's also the big solar farm being built near Christchurch Airport, among others in the South Island. Which is brilliant. But I think our reliance on private operators to get these things up and running is very risky. Which is why I think the Government should be getting some skin in the game, as well. Now before you start thinking, “what about SolarZero?”, that's different to what I'm talking about. That wasn't about solar farms, that was a joint venture between the Government and a private outfit which supplied solar panel kits to homeowners. But it does show the risk of relying on private outfits because SolarZero went into liquidation and that was it. I'm not saying that Lodestone Energy, which is behind the solar farm at Clandeboye, is a risky bet. I only want the best for them. But as anyone in business will tell you, nothing is guaranteed. That's why we don't have a solely private health system. Why we don't have a solely private education system. If anything, state ownership is —at the very least— a backstop. And that's why I think the state needs to get more involved in solar power generation. The potential fly in the ointment is use of land that might otherwise be used for things like growing food, but I can live with that. The Government might point to the Christchurch Airport solar farm and say that the Crown has a 25% share in the airport, so it's already investing in solar generation, but that would be dancing on the head of a pin. I'm talking here about the Government allocating money to the construction and operation of state-owned solar farms. But how would you feel about that?

It started as a way to block out a bit of ugly stuff and has blossomed into a community fundraiser. Last November a Temuka couple planted three hectares of their South Canterbury property in sunflower seeds, 10,000 to be exact and crossed their fingers they would bloom in perfect time to act as a backdrop for their wedding this month. The couple is opening their sunflower patch up to the public for a fundraising photo op, with proceeds from the entry fee going to the local kindy. Claire Goodwin spoke to Lisa Owen.

How about a free coffee as relief from the grind of a long roadie? But be warned the brew is instant and terms and conditions apply.

But cafe owner Vicki Haran is offering a little something for nothing, she spoke to Lisa Owen.

Geraldine is a lovely rural town in South Canterbury in the South Island of Aotearoa, New Zealand and it is also home to the family-owned business, Barker's. Barker's have been filling kiwi pantries since 1969 and their products are still made on the family farm in Geraldine. I remember Barker's blackcurrant syrup and Barker's jams when I was growing up, but they have so many more products than that now: chutneys, sauces, compotes and meal bases. I was pleasantly surprised when I was walking down Park Street in South Melbourne to see the Barker's Foodstore and Eatery sign and had to go in. The café stocks a lot of Barker's products and chef, Elle Casta's menu showcases them. Elle started her cheffing career a little later after working as a paralegal and then in advertising. She always loved cooking for her friends and, after apprenticeships at Ocha in Kew and Vue de Monde, her love for cooking only grew and there was no looking back. She now very happily works day shifts and particularly loves her loyal following of the Barker's dogs for whom she bakes big batches of peanut butter and oatmeal cookies every day.

Introducing Richard Spackman, the CEO of the Aoraki Foundation, who recently shared his journey and the foundation's mission on Purposely Podcast. Richard grew up in an entrepreneurial environment, with his parents managing various businesses, from service stations to ostrich farming. This upbringing instilled in him a strong understanding of business and a passion for innovation. Richard has demonstrated his leadership and entrepreneurial skills both in his business ventures and in his philanthropic endeavours, where he now strives to deliver greater impact through the foundation. The Aoraki Foundation is one of 18 Community Foundations in New Zealand. Their main goal is to provide “a simple and lasting way for people to support charitable causes in the South Canterbury Community,” Richard explains. The foundation's model of smarter giving ensures that every donation has a significant impact now and in the future. The foundation manages over 20 separate endowment funds, including the South Canterbury Health Endowment Fund, Miller General Impact Fund, and Fraser Ross Environmental Fund. These funds support numerous community groups and charities, addressing various needs within South Canterbury. Donors can make one-time contributions or leave gifts in their will. Richard proudly shares the foundation's role in major fundraising efforts, such as those for the CBay Aquatic Centre and the MRI Scanner. With guidance from dedicated volunteer trustees, the Aoraki Foundation is committed to strengthening the district. Richard's path to the Aoraki Foundation leadership began in 2012 when he moved from Christchurch to manage a business. His family fell in love with South Canterbury, and after traveling New Zealand and the Cook Islands in 2020, they decided to focus on community engagement upon their return. Richard's natural ability to connect with people and his belief in the power of giving make him a perfect fit for the foundation. Balancing his role with coaching local businesses and spending time with his family, Richard also enjoys sports, often attending rugby and cricket matches or cycling through Timaru's beautiful rural landscapes. Aiming to distribute $1 million annually by 2030 and manage $30 million in assets, Richard emphasises the role of community foundations in fostering local philanthropy and the importance of storytelling to engage donors. His background in business and coaching informs his leadership, focusing on growth and sustainability. He highlights the Eric and Queenie Miller fund, a significant legacy supporting local transport businesses, and his vision for the foundation to become a major community asset by 2050. Richard's story is one of dedication, community spirit, and a relentless pursuit of meaningful impact. His interview on Purposely Podcast offers valuable insights into the power of community foundations and the incredible potential they hold for positive change.

600 jobs are almost certainly gone from Timaru after workers were told by Alliance Group today it intends to close Smithfield meat processing plant. It's a body blow for the South Canterbury community with more than one percent of all of the Timaru district employed at the plant. Workers have been told it is just a proposal at this stage and there may be opportunities at Alliance's other sites around the country. But, as Timothy Brown reports, workers think the last nail is already in the coffin.

It's the highlight of many rugby players' careers in Aotearoa. The story of the day they play for the Ranfurly Shield is told for generations, but for the 2024 South Canterbury squad, the dream to challenge for the coveted log o' wood has been crushed under financial pressures. Sports reporter Jonty Dine speaks to Susana Lei'ataua.

Even our sports are being impacted by the rising costs and turbulent economy.  South Canterbury Rugby Union have had to pull out of the Ranfurly Shield as they can't afford to play.  CEO Tim Hyde-Smith told Mike Hosking that it would cost them about $50,000 to get up to Hawke's Bay to challenge the Magpies for the shield, of which they only managed to raise 30%.  He said that they'd been very privileged to challenge the last two years, but sponsorship and grant money wasn't forthcoming this year.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wild weather is flipping vehicles over and pulling down powerlines across South Island roads this week. Extreme caution is advised as 100 kilometre-per-hour wind gusts have flipped five vehicles so far in South Canterbury while State Highway 8 between Twizel and Glenbrook remains closed due to fallen lines. Metservice has issued orange rain warnings across the West Coast, Central Otago and Southland/Fiordland through until Friday. State Highway 94 into Milford Sound/ Piopiotahi could remain closed all of Thursday due to an avalanche risk. Motorbike users and drivers in high-sided vehicles or towing heavy loads face a greater risk of flipping or losing control under the current conditions and should check before they travel. The NZ Transport Agency's West Coast and South Canterbury journey manager Tresca Forrester spoke to Corin Dann.

Medical workers employed by one of the country's largest laboratory service providers will walk off the job next week, in Hawkes Bay, Wellington and the South Island after a break down in pay talks. The labs are warning there will be delays for patients; despite contingency arrangements for critical or life preserving services. The technicians and scientists process tests for everything from cancers to kidney and liver function,and of course COVID-19. The strike follows a stand-off between the lab service's privately owned parent company Awanui and workers covered by the APEX union. APEX says the average wage increase claim across the lab professions is about 23 percent. Next week, different specialty staff will walk off the job on Wednesday and Thursday with more strikes planned for the following Monday and Tuesday. New Zealand Institute of Medical Laboratory Science president, Terry Taylor, spoke to Lisa Owen. In a statement from Awanui group on behalf of its lab services it says its disappointed the union initiated stike action after a single day of bargaining and it will be tabling a package next week. "The industrial action will affect laboratory services in Wellington, Nelson, Christchurch, South Canterbury, Otago, and Southland regions and will mean delays to services, or no services at all, in most of these regions. Blood testing in the community will be severely impacted across the South Island and some regions will not have community collection services available from 12 to 18 July." It says the priority will be ensuring those who are seriously ill still receive the critical, life preserving services they need.
