Richmond is one of the oldest suburbs in Christchurch, it was severely impacted by the Christchurch Earthquakes and has seen it’s natural catchment eroded by the loss of the homes along the Avon Corridor.

Despite this Richmond has become a diverse, vibrant suburb that has a bright future ahead of it. The completion of the major roading projects, Richmond Working Men’s Club and the rebuild of Delta Community hub will only enhance the activities that are being undertaken by the likes of Avebury House, The Richmond Community Garden and the Regenerate facilitated Red Zone plan.
