Suspicious activity - Carter Road, Oratia

Sue Dell from Waiatarua Community Patrol

Hi folks
Please be aware that there has been some suspicious activities reported around the Carter Road area in Oratia this week - a home burglary on the 5th of March and an unusual occurrence today (where a man approached and stopped a woman driving in her car on the road around the 130's - asking for money for cigarettes).
Although this second incident may turn out to be harmless and unrelated, it was disturbing to the woman involved and very unexpected (and potentially unsafe to the man and motorists) on this windy, narrow road. He is described as disheveled, in his late 40's/early 50's, with shoulder length brown hair. Wearing shorts and a long sleeve top (possibly green).
As always, be vigilant about your home and personal safety and if you have any information please message us (or contact the Police).
Thank you
Waiatarua/Oratia/Henderson Valley Community Patrol

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
