You may still be able to order by mail or email, including using the CHIC Order Form.

Permanent closure of Christchurch Community Health Information Centre

The Resource Coordinator in Christchurch accepted early retirement redundancy effective from 1st November 2024, so the Christchurch CHIC has closed down.

Future orders for health education resources within Canterbury and Mid Canterbury will be provided from the South Canterbury CHIC.

The Timaru and Greymouth Community Health Information Centres are continuing to operate.

Other ways you can order resources

You can also order resources from CHIC via mail or email. Ordering via fax is no longer available.
