Meet-the-Candidates for Central Ward Councillor
Thanks to everyone who attended last night, we had over 70 people come and hear from the 5 candidates for Central Ward Councillor. A fantastic Meet the Candidates night hosted by Rotary Club of Christchurch Sunrise, We are Richmond and Phillipstown Community Hub.
Great to come together, socialise, educate ourselves on issues important to us, and meet those who will represent us. Thank you to Richmond Club, The Borough for offering the space for us all to gather, what an amazing venue. And thank you John Sellwood for MCing the night (even with his bagpipes!)
