Today marks the first anniversary of the deadly Christchurch earthquake which claimed the lives of 185 people.

One year on, the mood in the worst-affected suburbs has turned from shock and grief to anger and frustration.

Two minutes of silence will be observed at 12:51 pm local time, the exact time the quake struck 12 months ago.
