What a Beautiful place we live in

New direction at Compass FM

Compass FM’s new station manager Richard Green.
Experienced broadcaster Richard Green has taken over as station manager at North Canterbury’s Compass FM.
Green comes in for Mike Le Petit who had been the station manager since the Rangiora-based station launched in 2011. He had previously worked with Newstalk ZB in Auckland and More FM in Christchurch, where he hired Green.
Almost 20 years to the day he has hired Green again. More FM was Green’s first job in radio in Christchurch and he has since worked for Newstalk ZB, Classic Hits and was a tutor at Aoraki Polytech for 10 years – including when the course was relocated to Rangiora following the earthquakes.
As well as being the station manager, Green will continue his work with Newstalk ZB in various voice-over roles and as a weather commentator.
His main focus will be Compass FM and taking the station to ‘‘the next level’’ by taking it back to its roots.
‘‘Radio how it was. Serving the community and putting the people first,’’ Green said.
Under Green, the station will look to be informative at a local level while playing some classic tunes.
The first big change will be a seamless one when the station is fitted with a new on-air system before the end of the year.
The station has around 32 staff, some full time and others contributing on a casual basis.

Eliza McCracken Also in Rangiora and here to help the community of North Canterbury. Feel free to call if you need help. Introducing Community Wellbeing North Canterbury Trust.
Community Wellbeing North Canterbury Trust is a North Canterbury based Charitable Trust that provides support services to families and communities across the Waimakariri and Hurunui Districts.
Established in 1980s initially as the Kaiapoi Community Development Trust. In 1988 a group of local residents who recognised that there were disadvantaged people in the community employed a community worker, to help people to help themselves. Then the 1990s the Trust expanded its scope to include the Waimakariri, grew more services and became known as the Waimakariri District Community Development Trust.
In 2010 the Trust was renamed to Wellbeing North Canterbury Community Trust. The services that we have, now reflect a community response to the needs of local families, children and young people.
We have around 28 paid employees and over 100 dedicated volunteers on our team.
Our unique range of services aims to both build on the strengths and respond to the needs of our local area, to ensure that support is there for people when they need it.
Passion, Connection, Community
Our passionate Wellbeing team provides services to North Canterbury people to meet life’s challenges, so they can learn, connect and strengthen wellbeing in their lives and in the community.
OUR MISSION
We provide quality services that respond effectively to existing and emerging social and community needs.
