BAYS AREA COMMUNITY DIRECTORY 2020 - Proudly supported by
Welcome to the 2020 edition of the Bays Area Community Directory
- Taylors Mistake to Heathcote Valley.
This directory is a publication of the Bays Area Seniors’ Project.
What is the Bays Area Seniors’ Project?
Our mission:
To enhance wellbeing and connectedness and reduce social isolation among seniors in
the Bays area (Sumner, Redcliffs, Mt Pleasant, Heathcote Valley, Lyttelton, and Woolston)
The Bays Area Seniors Project team is a collective which consists of the following
organisations and community representatives
   •   Sumner Bays Union Trust
   •   Sumner Community Residents’ Association
   •   Redcliffs Residents’ Association
   •   Mt Pleasant Community Centre & Residents’ Association
   •   Heathcote Valley Community Association
   •   Lyttelton Community House Trust (activities not listed in this directory)
   •   Woolston Development Project (activities not listed in this directory)
We welcome anyone who cares about our seniors (including seniors themselves) to join us.
Our Strategic Objectives:
  • Facilitating connections
  • Sharing information across our areas
  • Linking seniors with groups, services and activities.
  • Coordinating and collaborating in our approach
Our Intended Outcomes
  • Increased participation among seniors in activities/groups
  • Collaboration between organisations operating in the Bays area
  • Individuals in our communities know of the choices and opportunities for social
      connection
Our project is designed to support seniors in several ways:
  • Social work support – carried out by social workers based in Sumner and Lyttelton
  • Supporting our local residents to be good neighbours to their senior neighbours
  • To highlight opportunities to get involved in social activities in our local community.
You will see that there are plenty of opportunities available in the directory section of this
booklet.
 Social isolation and loneliness are significant issues facing our seniors. We hope to alleviate
this major cause of mental illness together as people living in communities. Whether you are
                   a senior or not, there is information in this booklet for you.

Natural disasters
Flooding:
   •   Do not try to walk or drive through flood water
   •   Move valuable or dangerous items as high as you can off the floor
   •   Listen to the radio and follow the instructions of emergency services.

Tsunami
Tsunami are created by underwater earthquakes, volcanic eruptions or landslides and are
made up of waves or surges lasting for several hours. Tsunami can cause strong and
unpredictable currents and surges in the sea and river mouths. Only the largest tsunamis
flood land.
Things you need to know to be tsunami prepared:

5|Page
Warning Signs:
   •   A long rolling motion earthquake that lasts longer than a minute
   •   A strong earthquake that makes it hard to stand up
   •   Unusual ocean behaviour: loud or strange noises coming from the sea (e.g. like a jet
       plane or train) or sudden sea level changes.
If you experience any of these warnings, you may need to evacuate.
Warning Times
Warning times for a tsunami to reach the coastline varies, depending on where they
originate from and how long it takes to travel to our coastline.
Less than 1 hour of warning time: tsunami coming from close to our shore. There will not be
any time to issue an official tsunami warning, or sound sirens.
                      THE STRONG EARTHQUAKE IS YOUR BEST WARNING
1-3 hours of warning time: tsunami coming from outside the Canterbury Region. You may
feel the long-rolling earthquake. An official tsunami warning will be issued
12 hours or more of warning time: tsunami coming from across the Pacific Ocean. Official
tsunami warnings will be issued. Tsunami sirens installed along the Christchurch coastline will
be sounded.
You will not feel the original earthquake across the Pacific Ocean. Civil Defence official
tsunami warnings are given on the radio, television, social media, or through an Emergency
Mobile Alert, telling you which evacuation zones to evacuate. You can also do your bit by
sharing official tsunami warnings with neighbours, friends and family.
Am I in a tsunami evacuation zone? A tsunami evacuation zone is an area that you may
need to evacuate from if you feel a long or strong earthquake or if there is an official
tsunami warning. To find out if you are in an evacuation zone go to
www.ccc.govt.nz/tsunami
If you are not in an evacuation zone, you do not need to evacuate in a long or strong
earthquake.
When is it safe to return? Stay out of the evacuation zone(s) until the "all clear" has been
given by Civil Defence. If the sirens stop sounding, this does not mean you can return.
Follow the instructions of emergency services and/or Civil Defence personnel. Safe to
return, "all clear" messages will be broadcasted by Civil Defence using radio, TV, Newsline
and social media. A tsunami warning can be in place for many hours, as the first wave may
not be the biggest. So, you may be out of the evacuation zone for some time. You need to
be prepared to wait for many hours until the "all clear" is given by Civil Defence.
Tips to evacuate safely
It is your responsibility to determine the best place for you and those with you to move to.
Understand your evacuation zones so that you know which zones you may need to
evacuate and make a household plan together. Plan your evacuation route ahead of
time.

6|Page
Carpool: If possible, take extra passengers in your car. Check whether your neighbour
needs a ride or help evacuating. Carpooling reduces the number of cars and helps with
traffic flow.
Cycle or Walk: Sometimes evacuating on foot or bike is faster because the roads can get
congested easily. Why not take the time to go for a walk and plan a walk/bike evacuation
route?
Talk to family and friends: If you need to evacuate, it's more comfortable to go to a friend
or relative's place away from the evacuation zone(s) until the "all clear" has been given by
Civil Defence. Talk to them now about your evacuation plans.
Secure your home: Make sure to lock your doors and shut windows securely, and if you
can, turn off any utilities like power or gas. Secure your home as you normally would when
leaving for an extended period.

Landslides/rockfall/erosion
Landslides can range from a single boulder or rock, to a very large avalanche of earth and
rock. They are caused by heavy rain, earthquakes and, in some cases, human activity.
Landslides often happen without warning. During a landslide: Get out of the path of the
landslide quickly Warn neighbours and help others if you can Contact emergency services
and Christchurch City Council.
Earthquakes
Each year we have over 150 earthquakes throughout New Zealand that are large enough
to be felt. A large damaging earthquake could happen any time and can be followed by
aftershocks that continue for a long time. Most earthquake-related deaths and serious
injuries are caused by collapsing walls, and falling glass and objects caused by the shaking.
In a major earthquake, masonry and glass can fall off buildings and into the streets.
During an earthquake: If you are inside, Drop, Cover and Hold. Do not run outside as this
risks you getting hit by falling masonry and glass
If you are outside, move away from buildings, trees, streetlights, and power lines, then
Drop, Cover and Hold

Stay there until the shaking stops
If an earthquake is very strong and/or long and you are near the beach or coast, move
quickly to higher ground in case a tsunami follows the quake.

Storms
Major storms and severe weather can happen any time of the year. They can include
strong winds, heavy rain or snow, thunder, lightning, tornadoes and rough seas. The
Metservice puts out severe weather watches and warnings through news services and on
their website www.metservice.com and Facebook: www.facebook.com/MetService/
During a Storm:
   •   Secure, or move inside, anything that could cause damage in strong winds
   •   Close windows and doors, close curtains to prevent injury from breaking windows
   •   Stay inside and bring your pets inside. If you have to leave, take them with you
   •   Listen to the radio and follow the instructions of emergency services.

Fire
During summer we can experience long periods of hot and dry weather. This is great if you
like hanging out at the beach and beside the pool, but as vegetation becomes dry in the
Port Hills, the risk of wild fire increases.
Key fire safety tips include:
  • Make sure your property has good access for fire trucks, and to water supplies
  • Have a well-practiced escape plan so everyone knows what to do if there is a fire
  • Call 111 immediately if you see any smoke
  • Maintain a defensible area free of vegetation around your home
  • Store firewood in a cool dry place, not next to your home. It will dry out with the sun
       and heat and ignite easily
  • Dispose of cigarettes safely, do not throw them out of the car window
  • Be vigilant when carrying out activities with machinery that may cause sparks and
       ignite a fire. Dampen down the surrounding area beforehand, and undertake the
       activity first thing in the morning when it is coolest.
REMEMBER TO CHECK THE FIRE SEASON – restrictions may be in place.
Do I need a permit for a specific type of fire in my area?
Go to http://urban.checkitsalright.nz/check-fire-season-status/
What does a RESTRICTED or PROHIBITED FIRE SEASON mean?
Restricted: A permit is needed to light a fire in open air.
Prohibited: There is a total ban on the lighting of any fires in open air.

Health Emergencies
Health emergencies may take a number of forms:
  • Threatened or actual contamination of water supplies or food
  • Outbreak of a contagious disease
  • Epidemics. Infectious disease spreads rapidly to many people (e.g. SARS, Ebola)
  • Pandemics. Global disease outbreak (e.g. COVID-19).

8|Page
We are currently in the grip of a global pandemic. This is not likely to change for some time.
Follow government instructions on what to do and how to do it. www.covid19.govt.nz
General Considerations
  • Local radio and Civil Defence websites will have the right information and GP surgery
     phone messages will be updated with the latest information
  • Include face masks, plastic or latex protective gloves, soap and hand sanitiser in your
     emergency kit.
  • Be prepared to remain indoors with minimal contact.
You can also call Healthline on 0800 611 116. It's free and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week.
Call if you:
  • Feel unwell, but are not sure whether you need to see a doctor
  • Need some urgent advice about a family member or friend who is sick
  • Are on holiday in NZ and want to know where the nearest doctor or pharmacy is.

Notes about this directory
We have done our best to make sure that every entry is correct as at the time of publishing.
It is, however, important to remember that such a directory is inevitably immediately out of
                               date as soon as it goes to print.

Key local organisations
These are listed at the beginning of the directory section. These groups exist to support the
local community in four ways:
   •   As entities which undertake or support community(-led) development projects
   •   In three cases, as entities which are community or residents’ associations.
   •   In two cases, as entities which run community centres.
   •   In one case, the local youth centre.

Charitable Status
Where possible, the Charities Registration number is given under the entity name. This is a
six-digit number preceded by CC. Not all community organisations are registered as
charities; most have some kind of legal incorporation. All key organisations have legal
status though only some have charitable status. They are all not for profit organisations.

Public interest/good
Where the primary purpose of the organisation is to provide services to support the
wellbeing of the community, even if they are commercial entities, these have been
included. These include medical practices, pharmacies, schools and preschools. For
commercially run exercise classes, see the website of the community centre in question for
class times. These vary from term to term in many cases so it has not been possible to put
every single class into this booklet.

   •   Robin Arnold for writing the bulk of the emergency information for our original
       directory in 2017-2018. She made this directory easy to produce by having done the
       hard yards already. Thank you, Robin!

                Response with The Sumner Disaster Response
                           Group planned an appropriate structure,
                           volunteers, resources and contacts to
                           cope with being cut off for 5 days.
                           The Sumner Hub welcomes your
                           involvement to reinstate this group as we
                           cannot rely on Civil Defence to come to
                           our aid. In the days after a disaster, our
                           community will be responsible for itself.
