Community Patrol Volunteers

Bruce Hatrick from Bethlehem Community Patrol

We are seeking mature persons of excellent character with a sound and common sense approach and who have a desire to keep our local communities safer, by being extra ‘eyes and ears’ for the Police. Full training is given and experienced patrollers and Police provide on-going guidance.

The Bethlehem Community Patrol patrols the areas of Sulphur Point, Matua, Bellevue, Brookfield, Judea, Otumoetai, Pillans Point, and Bethlehem We currently operate two person patrols in our patrol vehicle on Friday and Saturday nights and also some day time patrols each week.

So if you live in any of these areas please consider joining us.

We are observers only and take no direct part in Police incidents.

You may well have seen our patrol vehicle in the area.

If you are interested in learning more about us, or can help out with four hours each month, or with some funding please contact us. Our contact details are listed under “Organisations” on Neighbourly, our website www.bcp.org.nz...... or on Facebook

Share your New Zealand music memories...

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It's NZ Music Month and New Zealand really has some beautiful songs from artists that we call our own.

Whether it's April Sun in Cuba, Don't Forget your Roots, or How Bizarre or Bic Runga's 'Sway' - songs have a way of unlocking memories and evoking old feelings.

In honour of NZ Music Month, share a New Zealand song or artist that is special to you and explain why.

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the Conversations column of your local paper.
