He was in Ashburton on Friday talking to members of the Mid Canterbury Rural Support Trust about the need for increased support for the rural sector when it came to mental health, particularly around suicide prevention. Ministry of Health suicide figures for the period from 2003 to 2015 showed that the urban rate had decreased by 7 per cent per 100,000 people while rural numbers had risen 17 per cent, Doocey said. Every number represented a person who Tania Scott had chosen to take their own life but when the number who had attempted 20,000, planned, BY JAIME PITT-MACKAY 50,000 or thought about suicide, 120,000 were [email protected] added the numbers were staggering, he said.

  • October 2012
    Newsletter October 2012 Spring – new beginnings There’s a bit of change in the air – and plenty under review. The new Youth rate is certainly causing a bit of a stir. There is an alarming youth unemployment problem and if this creates the anticipated 2000 jobs for young people, then I believe the initiative to be a good one. Young people need help to get a foot in the door – and this just might do it. In case you don’t know the ins and outs, from 1 April the wage will be available to 16-17-year-olds in their first six months of work with a new employer, 18-19-year-olds entering the work force after six months on a benefit, and 16-19-year-olds in recognised industry training courses Mary Jensen, WECA Co-ordinator involving at least 40 credits. I recently attended the introduction to TROQ – the Targeted Review of Qualifications – for Mechanical Engineering trades. Competenz called the meeting and unfortunately there was only a small turnout. This review is important to the industry and I will keep involved and keep you posted when it really gets going next year in March/April. Merger of Industry Training Organisations is still occurring but is fairly slow. We now have 27 ITOs, an improvement on the 42 of 2008, but still a long way to go to get down to an ideal 10 or 12 or so. On a lighter note, we had an interesting company visit to Convex Plastics – thank you very much Owen and team for hosting us.

  • World Rugby U20 Championship: the Story So Far
    World Rugby U20 Championship: The story so far World Rugby U20 Championship : The story so far We take a stroll down memory lane to look back at the 12 previous editions of the World Rugby U20 Championship. Now in its 13th year, the World Rugby U20 Championship has unearthed countless stars of the future and matches that have lived long in the memory. From Rugby World Cup winners such as All Blacks forward Sam Whitelock and Springboks’ fly-half Handré Pollard – the top points scorer in the RWC 2019 final – to current England captain Owen Farrell, age-grade international rugby’s premier event has provided the perfect stage to introduce exciting young talent. No less than 707 players have experienced playing at the U20 Championship before going on to be capped by their countries – enough to highlight its role in the player development pathway. Traditionally New Zealand have been the dominant force in the competition, capturing the title a record six times, with England the next-best on three. However, in recent times it is France who have emerged from the shadows. Les Bleuets won their inaugural title on home soil in 2018 before becoming the third team, after New Zealand and England, to successfully defend their crown in Argentina 12 months later with a thrilling 24-23 victory over Oceania U20 champions Australia.

    Youth Groups & Schools Ticket Offer AUTUMN INTERNATIONALS 2021 #AsOne v AUSTRALIA Sun 7 Nov, KO TBC v SOUTH AFRICA AUTUMN Sat 13 Nov, KO TBC INTERNATIONALS v JAPAN 2021 Sat 20 Nov, KO TBC Scotland play Australia, South Africa and Japan at BT Murrayfield in this year’s Autumn Internationals. Scotland will be aiming for a hat-trick of successive victories against the Wallabies, having won their last two encounters, at BT Murrayfield and in Sydney both in 2017. The last game at BT Murrayfield saw Scotland run in eight tries (there were 12 scored in total) in an astonishing 53-24 win over the team ranked third in the world at the time. Currently ranked sixth, the Wallabies are coached by Dave Rennie, former head coach at Glasgow Warriors who is assisted by the former Scotland defence coach Matt Taylor. It’s ten years since Scotland last beat the world’s number one ranked side, the Springboks, on home soil, though there have been some closely contested battles both home and away in the interim. The last time Scotland played South Africa at BT Murrayfield was in 2018 when they narrowly lost to the team that would go onto to lift the Rugby World Cup in Japan the following year. Tries from Peter Horne and Hamish Watson weren’t enough and the Scots were squeezed out 20-26. The last time Japan visited BT Murrayfield was in 2013 but the two teams have met three times since then. Scotland toured Japan in the Summer of 2016 and won a tough two-Test series.
