Community Patrols

Good Afternoon All,
We had a good turn out to the public meeting at Evans Bay Intermediate School last Tuesday evening. We have about 35 people who have completed the initial expression of interest form to become part of a community patrol. I am in the process of sending out Police Security Check forms for these people this week.
Because of the interest in commencing a patrol in the Southern Suburbs (incl. Newtown, Mt Cook, Brooklyn, Mornington, Kingston, Vogeltown, Berhampore, Island Bay, Southgate, Owhiro Bay, and Houghton Bay) we will continue to seek expressions of interest over the next few weeks.
If you know anyone who is interested but couldn’t come to the meeting last week please ask them to make contact with me and I will inform them of the process from here.
We are looking for people to volunteer to be the eyes and ears for the community for 4 hours per month. Safety is paramount for patrols and engaging with offenders is left to Police. There are always two people working together when a patrol is working. The roster is determined by data gathered by Police about hot locations and times, in conjunction with the local knowledge of patrollers.
Community Patrols New Zealand is an independent organisation that works in partnership with Police to keep our communities safer. When these groups get up and running in your areas, they will select their own management committee who will determine the practicalities of how your patrol will operate. I will be the Police Liaison for both the Eastern and Southern Patrols.
Thank you for supporting this venture.

Good Morning everyone,
I would like to remind all of you that there will be a public meeting to promote Community Patrols with the intention of setting them up in the Eastern Suburbs.
An information meeting that will be open to the public to inform any interested persons about the possibility of setting up a Community Patrols has been scheduled for mid November. This meeting will be held at Evans Bay Intermediate School on Tuesday the 16th of November 2010 at 7pm.
The meeting will take about one hour. It will include a presentation about how Community Patrols work and what being a volunteer for a patrol might look like. There will be an opportunity to ask questions.
While the intention is to look at the Eastern Suburbs I would encourage anyone who has an interest in Community Patrols to attend. To that end I would appreciate it if you could forward this information to any party you think may be interested.
If you require any further information Marina Marriott is the contact persons.
Regards
