Large parts of Christchurch could be underwater within 50 years, we are facing a climate emergency. As the waters rise, so are we.
Join us for a fun, family friendly march to bring attention to the crisis: dress up in water theme and bring water theme props (togs, snorkels, flippers, surfboards, lifebouys, life jackets, boats, canoes, paddles, lilos, blow up animals etc.)
Meet us in front of the 'Sure to Rise' sign at Edmonds Gardens 10am!
