More than 200 people attended our public exhibition in Christchurch about our exciting new development plans.

We held the consultation event in the community room at Christchurch fire station to unveil our proposals to residents, businesses and local groups.

Our plan is to move to a new state-of-the-art facility after outgrowing our existing home of more than 50 years in Reid Street, Christchurch.

We’re proposing that up to 220 new homes be built on the site in Reid Street after we leave for the new headquarters elsewhere within the borough.
