Return to lyttelton.net.nz

The Project Lyttelton Website is in the process of being upgraded. You are currently reading a website developed as a 'content management system.' We have moved away from a 'static' site,  horray! Community group members can be trained in using this type of website allowing us to become publishers, or bloggers which decreases dependancy on the web-developer and increases the opportunity for regular updates by members from within our organisation. To visit our previous site if you are looking for information you cannot find here click here old.lyttelton.net.nz

Moving to this system definately has its benifits and often its about what's under the hood, rather than the paint job, that really counts.  The Project Lyttelton website is sitting on a Virtual Server in Christchurch, specificallly built to support Community IT (so if you are a Lyttelton community group and you want to share what we have let us know) ... very soon we will have our own secure domain allowing us to sell products on behalf of our community "On Line". More that that this is all open source, that means Ubuntu for us and the CMS Is Joomla - Happy sharing!

Being the change

Project Lyttelton is a non-profit grassroots organisation committed to building sustainable, connected community.

Through a range of innovative projects, PL is harnessing the power of community and fostering hope and inspiration to create a collective future. Our values-based approach is inclusive and participative - we recognise all people have intrinsic value.

Some of our projects include; supporting local food production, looking at ways to meet energy needs through innovative community-based solutions, minimising waste, creating opportunities for people to come together to play, share information and skills, the initiatives continue grow!.

The PL model is attracting interest both nationally and internationally and we are happy to share what we've learned.

Planning on visiting - Print off the Snakes & Ladders Walking Map to discover our historic town.
