Police meeting
Tonight, we enjoyed a very fruitful meeting with recently appointed Sargent Hanfei Yue, officer in charge of Glenfield Police Station and Constable Devon Wright, community constable assigned to our area.
We were duscussing how to improve our communication with Police, we opened a new channel to share our findings and got advise about how to improve our patrols.
To keep an effective cooperation with NZ Police is one of our highest priorities and tonight we found a very supportive local Police team. We look forward to strengthen ties with them.
Remember: Beach Haven and Birkdale Community Watch efficiency depends on the number of patrols we deploy. The more patrols the less opportunity for crime. Get in touch now to give us a hand protecting our Community.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
