its all right to grieve

Today, on the third anniversary of the devastating Canterbury Earthquake, we take time to reflect on the life-changing events of that day and remember those who lost their lives, who lost loved ones, who were hurt in body and mind, who lost their homes and their livelihoods.

We acknowledge the ongoing affects of the earthquake – the stresses and strains on daily life – and, we accept that they are likely to continue for some time. But we feel positive about the future and we are grateful to all those who have given so much to help rebuild Christchurch – not just the city, but the community.

We have worked closely with many organsiations doing amazing things on the ground to support people and help regenerate and rejuvenate the spirit of this great city.
