Senior Constable Don Allan's monthly newsletter

Colleen from Onehunga

Happy Spring Neighbours :-)
Please pass this newsletter on as there are a lot of valuable tips to reduce crime on page 5 and 6. Vehicle crime prevention tips are detailed on page 7.
Don's newsletter is always welcome, he's been up-skilling during August training new Police constables from Police college.
He comments "A majority of crime occurs due to the unforeseen opportunities that are created by unwitting victims not aware of the opportunities they are presenting for criminals." Please refer to burglary and vehicle crime prevention advice in the newsletter. He's pointed out these things many times to help us stay safe. -
He's mentioned some very useful things to look for to reduce crime, including our vigilance and reporting it all to the Police.
Over 100 licence plates are stolen throughout Auckland each month !!!

Maybe put Crimestoppers number in your phone contacts to report some information about crime whilst keeping your identity anonymous - 0800 555 111 or call 105 to report crime that is not an emergency.

Stay Safe
Regards
Colleen

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?

Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctor’s appointment online?

The Doctors

Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctor’s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.

For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.

Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.
