The Christchurch Methodist Mission were named last night as a finalist in the Westpac Champion Business Awards.  Along with Cholmondeley and Christchurch City Mission, they are up for The Press Champion Community Impact Award. It is great to be recognised for their efforts, especially in housing, and particularly in leading the HousingFirst initiative in Christchurch along with 5 other organisations. Most of the time the amazing team at Christchurch Methodist Mission just go quietly about theior business making Christchurch and the wider region a better place to belong to.

Housing First Team Leader Nicola Fleming is pictured here with the finalist certificate at last night’s finalist function at Ara Institute of Canterbury. The whole team is looking forward to celebrating with all the other finalists at the ceremony on September 18, when the final awards will be announced.
