Upper Hutt Community Patrol - Safer Plates Event
Do you want anti-theft screws on your Vehicles number plates?
Upper Hutt Community Patrol and Wellington District Police will be installing tamper-resistant 'Safer Plates' screws on Friday 8th April from 10:45am till 2pm @ Countdown Queen Street, Upper Hutt
Over the past few months, a number of plates have been stolen throughout the Hutt Valley, and this number is on the increase. Stolen plates are being used to switch plates to facilitate crime such as petrol drive offs.
To curb the increase in number plate theft, Community Patrols of New Zealand - CPNZ have produced special screws which require a special driver to remove, these are used to replace the existing standard screws; this lessens the chances of the plates being stolen.
A small donation of $5 is appreciated which will go to running the Upper Hutt Community Patrol Vehicle.

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
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.
