'Rekindle' is an initiative started since the earthquakes in Canterbury which provides purposeful work for young people by giving them the opportunity to design and fashion furniture from waste wood. Spectrum's Deborah Nation explores 'Rekindle'.
A photograph of the Cranmer Centre on Armagh Street. Bricks have fallen off one of the gables onto the concrete below. The remaining gables have been braced with wood to limit further damage. A cherry picker can be seen below, and there is fencing around the building.
A photograph of the earthquake damage to the White's Building on Tuam Street, visible through a broken window. The roof of the building has collapsed into the building, a plank of wood breaking through the window.
A broken window at ground level has building rubble behind it, some of which has been pushed out through the broken glass. The photographer comments, "The alternate title is 'Under Pressure'. A bulldozer must have pushed earthquake debris up against the internal wall not realising there was a glass reinforced window at ground level".
Some 10 years on from the devastating Canterbury quakes, the wait is still not over when it comes to law changes needed to improve the Earthquake Commission. The government will not get it done until 2021, if it's re-elected. Meanwhile cases of botched quake repairs needing a fix are still flooding into EQC, Greater Christchurch Regeneration Minister Megan Woods told Checkpoint.

Water has swept grit and splinters of wood onto the footpath outside the Durham Street Methodist Church. In the background of the photograph a piece of one of the church's roof beams with its steel brace can be seen.
A pigeon perches in the beams of a damaged building. The photographer comments, "The building next door was demolished after the Christchurch earthquake, which exposed the side of this building with it's very old corrugated iron walls. Some of the sheeting was damaged and exposed parts of the interior. The pigeon was sitting on a bit of wood with the beam above it had a very serious crack. I think you would be nervous as well".
A photograph of a statue lying on planks of wood outside the Canterbury Museum. The statue fell during the 22 February 2011 earthquake, and the head broke off. A message on the exposed neck reads, "My head is at Christ College".
A broken driveway on Avonside Drive. The concrete slabs on the driveway have lifted during the earthquake, creating a large crack in the driveway. The crack has been filled with tiles and wood but the rubbish bins have still fallen in.
