    Community-Led Youth Wellbeing Needs Analysis for the Cheviot Area School Catchment and the Wider Hurunui District Prepared by Michelle Cole, Sarah Wylie and Dr Janet Spittlehouse of The Collaborative Trust for Research and Training in Youth Health and Development, for Cheviot Area School, and of relevance to Together Hurunui and Tipu Māia Kāhui Ako January 2021 Executive Summary Background With support from Lotteries Community Research Fund, research was undertaken in the latter part of 2020 focused on the strengths and opportunities of young people in the Hurunui district, and how these can be assisted to grow. The research was initiated by Cheviot Area School, and undertaken by Michelle Cole, a Hurunui-based youth mental health specialist and Sarah Wylie, a researcher from The Collaborative Trust for Research and Training in Youth Health and Development. The research sought to answer the following questions: 1. What are the current and likely future wellbeing needs of children, young people and whānau in Hurunui? (Evidence of service and support needs, barriers to service access, service and support gaps etc.) 2. What model of service delivery and support provision is best-placed to address these wellbeing needs locally? (What services and supports are most needed, how are they best delivered, and what is possible from both a school, community and service provider perspective?) 3. If a wellbeing hub is found to meet with support, what is the best approach to develop a wellbeing hub at Cheviot School in a sustainable manner? Although commissioned by Cheviot Area School, the research is of relevance to all youth service providers across Hurunui, and is intended as a community resource.

  • May 2020 INTRODUCTION
    May 2020 INTRODUCTION Looking at the environment within which the Council operates is key to ensuring that what the Council decides to deliver in future is relevant and of value. This Environmental Scan (the Scan) provides a snapshot of information so that everyone who references it can have a shared understanding of the current issues and opportunities facing the Hurunui District. The Scan considers both the national and regional context to which we work within, along with identifying local statistics in order to assist in decision-making. Information has been sourced from a wide range of originations primarily at a desktop level, and key issues identified through this process will be given further investigation. It has been designed to provide standard sets of information for direct input into the Council’s long term planning process; particularly its financial and infrastructure strategies and asset and activity management plans. 1 Relationship This Scan assists in the early identification of key drivers to help set the Council's strategic and with other operational directions. It also provides a snapshot of the District in planning order to apply standard statistics to all planning documents for Hurunui documents District. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 1 District Summary 4 P o p u l a t i o n 6 Housing and Income 1 4 Climate Change 1 8 Natural Hazards 2 4 C o v i d - 1 9 2 7 Legislative Changes 3 1 Economic Profile 4 1 Affordability of Services 4 6 Technological Advancements 4 8 Infrastructure 5 0 S o u r c e s 6 5 3 The Hurunui District stretches from the South Island’s east coast to the Main Divide covering an area of approximately 8,600 km 2 of predominantly rural land.

In particular, local surface water runoff can cause considerable volumes of water to pass into the areas surrounding the Amberley Beach and Leithfield Beach settlements. In the case of Leithfield Beach, this flooding can also be exacerbated by overbank flows from the Kowai River. This study of the Kowai River floodplain and Leithfield Beach and Amberley Beach settlements used a combined one and two dimensional hydraulic computer model to estimate flood extent, depths, and flood levels for the 50 year and 200 year Average Recurrence Interval (ARI) flood events. Floodplain topography for the model was derived from a detailed LiDAR survey flown in 2012.
