Hastings Community Patrol
Hastings Community Patrol (HACP)
The Hastings Community Patrol is a team of local volunteers that play a key role in keeping our local communities safe. We are a group of dedicated volunteers who patrol the Hastings central, urban, and rural areas focusing on crime prevention. We act as extra 'eyes and ears' for police, noting anything that could be suspicious and informing police of incidents requiring urgent attention. We also work closely with the
Hastings District Council and other organizations sharing a similar interest in community safety.
Quote from the local police “Community Patrols are invaluable to Police, they keep an eye on neighbourhoods, and provide valuable intelligence to Police who cannot be everywhere at once”
We carry out day and night patrols in our own sign written vehicle that is easily identified by the community.
Our patrol members are fully trained as per National CPNZ protocols. Volunteering with Hastings Community Patrol is a great way to make our local community safer and offers a great way of being part of a volunteer team.
We would like to encourage other like-minded community members to join our highly motivated and committed team. You just need to be keen to learn, keen eyes and ears, friendly and honest and hold a current driving license. We are a diverse group of Hastings locals.
So, if you have the time, commitment and want to put something back into the community Hastings, Community Patrol is seeing new members to join.
Getting started:
Your first step is to express your interest by contacting our recruitment website cpnz.org.nz/join-cpnz or contact Glen on hastings@cpnz.org.nz
All applications will be Police vetted.
Join us and be part of the Hastings volunteer community.
