Putting their lives on the<br />

line to save ours - for free<br />

Volunteer firefighters<br />

are on the frontline<br />

of firefighting. We<br />

depend on them<br />

for the safety of our<br />

communities, but<br />

we sometimes forget<br />

what it costs them.<br />

Dylan Walker reports<br />

SWEAT BEADS down his brow<br />

and into his eyes as he struggles<br />

to look into the cloud of smoke<br />

leaking out of the door.<br />

Senior volunteer firefighter<br />

Shaun Mahon holds his infrared<br />

camera in front of him, opens<br />

the door, and walks, almost<br />

blind, into the fuming entrance<br />

to join the other fighters. His<br />

heavy outfit and breathing-assist<br />

mask would protect him, but<br />

every second counts when lives<br />

are on the line.<br />

Mahon is a senior volunteer<br />

firefighter at Anzac Station in<br />

New Brighton, and has been<br />

there for four years. He’s one<br />

of more than 11,500 volunteer<br />

firefighters in the country,<br />

saving lives without being<br />

paid.<br />

The garage he’s walking into is<br />

part of the station, but with an<br />

added smoke machine. This is a<br />

regular training exercise, one of<br />

many the volunteer firefighters<br />

do every week to stay sharp<br />

PREPARED: Senior volunteer firefighter Shaun Mahon prepares to enter a smoky garage during a routine training<br />

exercise. Volunteer firefighters make up 85 per cent of firefighters in New Zealand. PHOTOS: DYLAN WALKER<br />

and prepared.<br />

While they may be rescuing<br />

a dummy filled with sand, they<br />

take training seriously.<br />

As Mahon says: “We never<br />

know when we’ll be required to<br />

rescue a human.”<br />

In the station meeting room<br />

alongside three of his volunteer<br />

brigade comrades, Mahon was<br />

calm and reserved.<br />

Staying calm, he said, is<br />

essential. At any moment<br />

he could be called to a local<br />

emergency. He needs to stay<br />

ready to be in gear and out the<br />

door of the station within five<br />

minutes or less.<br />

The other volunteer qualified<br />

firefighters in the room –<br />

Malachi Batchelor, Ryan Haines<br />

and Yogen Pillay – are in the<br />

same boat. Batchelor, Haines<br />

and Mahon are self-employed<br />

in the area, with the flexibility<br />

to drop everything when<br />

their pager goes off. Pillay is<br />

a full-time student and works<br />

part-time. The above training<br />

exercise was on his birthday.<br />

Flourishing garden shows the<br />

importance of ‘community spirit’<br />

IT’S OFFICIAL: Mayor Phil Mauger opening the Avondale Community Garden on<br />

Sunday with its founder, 13-year-old Jordan Wilson. Above – with Mauger and<br />

Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board member Jo Zervos and<br />

Linwood Ward city councillor Yani Johanson and daughter Milania.<br />

A SUCCESSFUL grand opening<br />

marked the blossoming of a<br />

community garden in the red<br />

zone.<br />

More than 70 people gathered<br />

at the Avondale Community<br />

Garden on Sunday to celebrate<br />

with its founder, 13-year-old<br />

Jordan Wilson.<br />

who said the event was fantastic.<br />

“There were so many people<br />

there, which showed how much<br />

the community was right behind<br />

seemed to be growing very well,<br />

there. It just showed the importance<br />

of the community spirit.”<br />

Canterbury Community<br />

Gardens Association capacity<br />

builder Rachel Vogan said many<br />

city councillors, community<br />

members, and staff from CCGA<br />

were there to support Jordan.<br />

“I think he is the youngest<br />

Now only<br />

$35.80<br />

Plus $5 P&H per copy<br />

person to develop and start a<br />

community garden like this.<br />

His passion and enthusiasm are<br />

phenomenal.”<br />

The former Chisnallwood Intermediate<br />

School pupil started<br />

the project last year after realising<br />

there were no community<br />

gardens near his school.<br />

Since then, he has been working<br />

with volunteers to grow a<br />

range of vegetables, including<br />

broccoli, cabbages and silverbeet.<br />

Jordan said he has received<br />

a lot of support from the<br />

community and local businesses.<br />

This year, a water tank, a<br />

compost bin, a wheelbarrow,<br />

a shed, and a sign board were<br />

donated.<br />

Volunteer firefighting ‘all about<br />

giving back at the end of the day’<br />

• From page 1<br />

Said Haines: “There’s this<br />

pulling you both ways, you’ve<br />

got to put food on the table but<br />

you also want to serve your<br />

community. There have been a<br />

few sleepless nights.”<br />

Anzac Station is the<br />

only composite station in<br />

Christchurch. This means it<br />

houses both volunteer and career<br />

firefighters, sharing the same<br />

building and resources. Career<br />

firefighters live in rooms on<br />

site, and are paid for their work.<br />

Volunteers do it in addition to<br />

their regular lives, without pay.<br />

Mahon believes it’s more<br />

rewarding firefighting for free,<br />

doing it of your own volition.<br />

The New Brighton Volunteer<br />

Fire Brigade currently has 15<br />

active members, including<br />

recruits, with half of those being<br />

self employed.<br />

Ninety-nine per cent of the<br />

callouts the volunteer firefighters<br />

attend are with their professional<br />

colleagues; they are primarily<br />

sent out to support them or when<br />

they are busy elsewhere.<br />

In August, firefighters all<br />

around the country took strike<br />

action for an hour on two days,<br />

as part of a protest during<br />

negotiations with Fire and<br />

Emergency New Zealand and<br />

the New Zealand Professional<br />

Firefighters Union.<br />

The action was in response to<br />

concerns about pay, gear and<br />

truck quality, as well as staffing<br />

shortages. Many are working<br />

overtime and feeling the mental<br />

strain.<br />

The New Brighton Volunteer<br />

Fire Brigade supports its peers,<br />

and believes all public services<br />

should have safe staffing levels.<br />

FENZ and the NZPFU have<br />

been in mediated negotiations,<br />

and cancelled strike action<br />

earlier this week. However, they<br />

have more strikes planned for<br />

tomorrow and Monday.<br />

For some firefighters, their<br />

reason to volunteer is personal.<br />

Mahon lost a friend to a<br />

motorcycle accident. He was on<br />

the side of the road with him<br />

when he died. Not being able to<br />

help was a catalyst, encouraging<br />

him to complete training so he’s<br />

ready to help out wherever and<br />

whenever he can.<br />

Pillay said: “That’s the worst<br />

feeling, being helpless.”<br />

For firefighters, their local<br />

community is vital. It’s where<br />

they spend most of their time,<br />

both in and out of uniform, and<br />

they need to be trusted.<br />

Mahon and Haines are following<br />

in the footsteps of their<br />

fathers, who were firefighters for<br />

32 and 36 years respectively.<br />

“Volunteering is like gaining<br />

an extra family, you make<br />

so many life friends from it.<br />

Basically any help you need, all<br />

you’ve gotta do is ask. They will<br />

be there for you,” said Mahon.<br />

When asked about how much<br />

free time they had, all four of<br />

them laughed. With their regular<br />

jobs, training and being on call,<br />

free time is rare. They get the occasional<br />

weekend off with cover,<br />

but with reduced numbers at the<br />

moment they’re having to stay on<br />

duty more often.<br />

Firefighters have to have their<br />

clothes and boots folded next to<br />

their bed when they go to sleep,<br />

in case of an emergency alert,<br />

‘I’ve pulled a boy out of a house fire myself, and he ended<br />

up passing. He was the same age as my daughter. It<br />

brings it into perspective’ – Shaun Mahon<br />

Haines said. Gear, keys, all in a<br />

set place for when it counts.<br />

Mahon suggested people<br />

should try setting their alarm for<br />

2am, get up as soon as it goes off,<br />

get dressed and run out the front<br />

door. He said “It’s not a good<br />

feeling.”<br />

Considering how many<br />

emergencies and traumatic situations<br />

firefighters respond to,<br />

maintaining good mental health<br />

is paramount.<br />

The firefighters mentioned an<br />

incident in September, when they<br />

were called to a seven-month-old<br />

child who was choking. They<br />

were returning from a different<br />

callout when they heard on<br />

the radio about the baby and<br />

turned around.<br />

Thankfully, by the time they<br />

got there, the baby had started<br />

firefighters.<br />

breathing again. The firefighters<br />

performed a safety check and<br />

waited with the parents until the<br />

ambulance arrived.<br />

It’s for situations like these<br />

they keep teddy bears in the fire<br />

truck, to give to parents and<br />

young children to help them<br />

calm down in times of stress.<br />

For most people, a traumatic<br />

incident like a large fire, a suicide<br />

attempt or a medical emergency<br />

is a once-in-a-lifetime event.<br />

Firefighters are going to one<br />

every second week.<br />

“I think people would be surprised<br />

at how much we actually<br />

see,” said Batchelor.<br />

Mahon said: “I’ve pulled a boy<br />

out of a house fire myself, and<br />

he ended up passing. He was<br />

the same age as my daughter. It<br />

brings it into perspective.”<br />

He sometimes relies on dark<br />

humour, which “sounds bad, but<br />

sometimes it’s the only way to<br />

get through it”.<br />

The fighters acknowledged<br />

they do have good support systems,<br />

to make sure everyone is<br />

alright and to identify stress and<br />

mental health issues. FENZ provides<br />

support through dedicated<br />

staff should they need it, but the<br />

volunteers find the first step and<br />

most permanent form of support<br />

is other firefighters, since most<br />

of the time they were at the same<br />

event.<br />

Batchelor said quite often<br />

a firefighter might be beating<br />

themselves up, asking themselves<br />

“What did I do wrong, what<br />

could I have done better?” and<br />

that’s when another firefighter<br />

will step in and say “You did<br />

everything right, there’s nothing<br />

you could have done.”<br />

After organising, running and<br />

debriefing the training, Mahon<br />

spent time cleaning up the gear.<br />

He had a moment of peace,<br />

washing a breathing-assist mask.<br />

For a brief second, he worried<br />

slightly less about the potential<br />

of a callout.<br />

“Training’s always hard. We<br />

try to make it real,” he said.<br />

Volunteer firefighters make up<br />

85 per cent of all firefighters in<br />

New Zealand. It’s inconceivable<br />

how many lives they’ve saved.<br />

Across the country, they’re sacrificing<br />

their time, mental wellbeing<br />

and family commitments,<br />

all to be constantly vigilant and<br />

ready.<br />

Haines said: “It’s not all about<br />

running in and spraying cold<br />

stuff on hot stuff.”<br />

Mahon said: “It’s about giving<br />

back, at the end of the day.”<br />

Craft store to close<br />

• By Natalie Pham<br />

VOLUNTEERS are<br />

disappointed with the decision<br />

to close a community shop in<br />

Dallington after 22 years of<br />

operation.<br />

Gretchen Sheehan said ever<br />

since she became a volunteer<br />

at the Dallington Craft Shop<br />

15 years ago, she has donated<br />

crocheted and knitted garments<br />

to the shop or other charities.<br />

“The biggest downfall of the<br />

whole thing is that there is no<br />

other space that the community<br />

could go to,’’ she said.<br />

While her works will still go<br />

to other charities, Sheehan said<br />

she will miss talking and seeing<br />

the people.<br />

“I’d say 90 per cent of our<br />

volunteers live alone and at least<br />

90 per cent are over 60. So we’re<br />

not young people who can go do<br />

volunteer work at other places.”<br />

For many years, the shop<br />

relied on the funding the Dallington<br />

Community Trust received<br />

from the Waitai Coastal-<br />

Burwood Community Board,<br />

now Waitai Coastal-Burwood-<br />

Linwood.<br />

However, trust chairperson<br />

David Collins said the grant has<br />

declined over the year.<br />

“Last year, the grant dropped<br />

to $9000. This year, it dropped<br />

again to $7500. But the total<br />

operation cost of the trust,<br />

including the shop, [are close to]<br />

DISAPPOINTMENT: Volunteers at Dallington Craft Shop,<br />

Mary Riley, Ngaire Davenport, Alison Adams, Beryl Starr,<br />

and Jill Shackleton, are disappointed with the decision to<br />

close the store after 22 years.<br />

$16,000 this year.”<br />

Collins said limited available<br />

funding left the trust with no<br />

other option but to close the<br />

shop.<br />

But this decision means the<br />

trust will still be able to maintain<br />

other community events,<br />

including Christmas hunts and<br />

street barbecues.<br />

“We feel that we’re more likely<br />

to get more funding for projects<br />

where there are definitive outcomes<br />

than for the operating<br />

cost of a shop,’’ he said.<br />

“At the moment, we’re desperate<br />

for fresh trustees to help with<br />

organising more community<br />

events.”<br />

Collins encouraged the<br />

community to visit the shop and<br />

have a chat with the volunteers<br />

before it permanently closes next<br />

year.<br />

Home for theatre sought<br />

• By Natalie Pham<br />

THREE MOTHERS are attempting<br />

to make Christchurch the best city<br />

to be in as a child.<br />

A permanent space for children<br />

to enjoy theatre experiences is<br />

what Burwood’s Melanie Luckman,<br />

Waltham’s Hannah<br />

Wheeler and Edgeware’s Amy<br />

Straker have been hoping for.<br />

The mothers behind Cubbin<br />

Theatre Company have hosted<br />

more than 90 performances to<br />

thousands of children under five<br />

across the city.<br />

They are now in the second<br />

stage of applying for a $280,000<br />

grant from the Ministry for<br />

Culture and Heritage for their<br />

project Ōtautahi Children’s Performing<br />

Arts Initiative.<br />

This round requires public<br />

feedback on the project, which<br />

will close on Sunday.<br />

A decision on the next stage<br />

will be made in late December.<br />

Then, the team will need to go<br />

through two more rounds before<br />

knowing whether it will receive<br />

the funding.<br />

If approved, the grant will go<br />

towards securing a lease, creating<br />

workshops for parents and artists,<br />

and providing high-quality<br />

performances.<br />

It all started four years ago<br />

after mother-of-two Luckman<br />

realised there were no artistic<br />

experiences offered for the underfive<br />

age group.<br />

Being a theatre director,<br />

she discussed the idea with<br />

experienced actors Straker and<br />

Wheeler.<br />

Said Luckman: “We have a really<br />

strong vision for wanting highquality<br />

works for under five.”<br />

New scholarship aims to encourage more<br />

women into the sustainability sector<br />

A NEW scholarship, offered<br />

through Ara Institute of<br />

Canterbury – Te Pukenga and<br />

Fife Foundation, is expected<br />

to provide a huge incentive for<br />

young women to take on study<br />

in the sustainability and outdoor<br />

education sphere.<br />

The scholarship, available<br />

for the first time for study at<br />

Ara in 2023, will cover full fees<br />

($25,000) for a woman enrolling<br />

in the Bachelor of Sustainability<br />

and Outdoor Education.<br />

Te Ako me Te Tiaki i Te Taiao<br />

sustainability and outdoor<br />

education manager, Dave Irwin<br />

said it’s the most significant<br />

scholarship Ara offers, and<br />

demonstrates future thinking in<br />

action.<br />

“I am thrilled that this<br />

scholarship is targeted at women.<br />

While sustainability is everyone’s<br />

business, women have unequally<br />

borne the brunt of unsustainable<br />

practices globally – be it<br />

through scarcity of food, rising<br />

costs, inequity, or social justice<br />

prejudice,” he said.<br />

Founded by Gina Satterthwaite<br />

and taking its name from her<br />

grandmother, Fife Foundation<br />

is a not-for-profit entity that<br />

aims to help people live happier,<br />

healthy lives while benefiting our<br />

planet.<br />

Irwin said having the<br />

INCENTIVE: A new scholarship, offered through Ara – Te Pukenga and Fife Foundation,<br />

opportunity to build a<br />

relationship with Fife<br />

Foundation to encourage women<br />

to aspire to leadership roles in<br />

the sector is incredibly exciting.<br />

“Sustainability is all about<br />

working together, collaborating<br />

and networking. It’s clear<br />

our traditional patriarchal<br />

way of doing things in siloed,<br />

segmented and competitive<br />

ways simply doesn’t work, and<br />

as we move into the future,<br />

relationships are going to be<br />

critical,” he said.<br />

Gina Satterthwaite agreed.<br />

“We seek to be collaborative<br />

as it’s so much more powerful<br />

than working alone. It gives us<br />

the chance to have a longer reach<br />

and make a greater impact.”<br />

Satterthwaite said the<br />

scholarship is a tangible way to<br />

act locally with hopes for global<br />

outcomes – specifically working<br />

to address the imbalance that<br />

exists for women at governance<br />

and board levels.<br />

“My hopes for this scholarship<br />

are that it breaks barriers for<br />

a passionate young woman<br />

wanting to study, grow and<br />

contribute at a high level in the<br />

sustainability sphere,” she said.<br />

Satterthwaite has a personal<br />

connection to the course with<br />

daughter Georgia, who is also<br />

involved with Fife Foundation,<br />

nearing completion of Ara<br />

– Te Pūkenga’s Bachelor of<br />

Sustainability and Outdoor<br />

Education. The course provided<br />

a natural tertiary study fit for<br />

Georgia, who grew up rurally<br />

and has a drive to protect the<br />

environments she loves.<br />

“Together we share a<br />

passion for the environment,<br />

land and oceans, and a huge<br />

sense of responsibility to care<br />

for the spaces we all enjoy,”<br />

Satterthwaite said.<br />

Irwin said the study of<br />

sustainability has struggled<br />

to gain traction in the tertiary<br />

sector, but the new scholarship<br />

shows Ara is ready to lead a shift<br />

in thinking, incentive, and focus.<br />

“When we think about the<br />

fast rate of change the world is<br />

facing – be it in terms of climate,<br />

biodiversity or the gap between<br />

rich and poor – it needs big,<br />

concerted efforts to halt that<br />

trajectory. This relationship is<br />

one. Fife Foundation is ready to<br />

act and as an organisation we too<br />

are showing that we’re prepared<br />

to invest heavily in this vital<br />

space.<br />

“We’re joining forces for good.”<br />

furthermore giving you the utmost peace of mind. As all the repairs are being completed, there is just over $21,347.50,<br />

excluding GST worth of cosmetic work you can have a say in, such as tiles and paint colours.<br />

Should you wish to update the kitchen and bathroom, you are welcome to do so before moving in, meaning you can move<br />

into a practically new unit.<br />

that needs remediation lies in the middle of the HOME as part of<br />

the original dwelling.<br />

Comprising four bedrooms, the master bedroom includes ensuite<br />

and walk-in robe and the other three being of very generous<br />

proportions. Open plan kitchen, living and dining flows seamlessly<br />

into the outdoor entertainment area making for the perfect summer<br />

haven. All of this is set on 835m2 of prime Redcliffs terra firma.<br />

the price you would usually pay, this is one HOME that you don't<br />

want to miss out on.<br />
