Vandals attacked the statue at Teschmakers, removing its head, left hand and the fingers of the right hand. Some pieces were missing or smashed beyond repair but retired monumental mason Gordon Anderson felt he could restore the Italian marble statue.

    Two Years On 2018-2019 Summary he Community Health Council (CHC) is an advisory council for the Southern District Health Board (DHB) and WellSouth Primary Health TNetwork (hospital and community health services including GPs) and has enabled a stronger community, whãnau and patient voice to be heard in decision-making across the Southern health system. Since forming just over two years ago, the CHC has had some membership changes to ensure a rotational membership. The Southern district is fortunate to have so many willing and engaged people coming forward as CHC members as well as CHC advisors. Ensuring there is diversity on the Council is of great importance, as well as geographical representation from across the district. Current CHC membership is outlined in Appendix 1. In May 2018, the CHC launched their Community, Whãnau and Patient Engagement Framework and Roadmap to support staff with engaging and involving community, whãnau and patient advisors in decision-making of all projects. The process the CHC has set up provides a benchmark for what the CHC believes is true community, whãnau and patient engagement and is actually putting the person at the centre of everything we do. The CHC hosted a number of People’s Caucus to outline this framework and "We've got consumers process and asked for people in the community to come forward and express an interest in being CHC advisors to projects. The number of people who in the room listening and have expressed an interest in being a CHC advisor has since grown to over 80 bringing the different people.
