Community Constable Don Allan's newsletter
Hi Neighbours, Thank goodness Don is back, all fixed and good as new from his recent surgery:-) We're so lucky we have him to keep us in the loop, thank you Don.............
Hi All,
I hope you are all keeping safe and well.
Unfortunately due to personal circumstances I was not able to send out last months police newsletter with crime updates, however I can report there were no increases in crime during September 2021.
I have now returned to the office for light duties after hernia surgery (very minor, but necessary) however I will be resuming full duties from the 15th of November in just over a week’s time, so I will officially be allowed out and about.
Due to the current situation in Auckland, I will now be doing shift work working alongside my team and this will incorporate a mix of early and late shifts. Regardless, once the alert system allows, I will make myself available to attend and support any community and crime prevention meetings and engagements when needed.
As for Covid19, You’re probably all sick to death with hearing about this situation, however You must know that we do have covid19 cases in Onehunga where people are self- isolating, so the risk of transmission is right on our doorstep.
Please continue to follow recommendations and guidelines and continue to maintain social distancing of at least 1-2 meters depending on your situation and location, do not solely rely on a mask. A layered approach is the key to keeping well. Get vaccinated, socially distance, mask up, sanitise etc. The more layers of protection you have the less chance of catching the “coof”
Also, Boost your vitamin D and Zinc for increased immunity benefits.
Kind regards
Don

🧩😏 Riddle me this, Neighbours…
I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
