Helping Build Better communities

We are a team of volunteers who believe that every helping hand can make a difference.

We assist in keeping Howick, Pakuranga and surrounding suburbs safe, tidy and clean

In partnership with others we help prevent crime and reduce harm to others through the active presence of trained volunteer patrollers.

Our Parent Body

Community Patrols of New Zealand (CPNZ) is a national organisation that was formed in 2002. CPNZ head office is based at Police National Headquarters in the National Prevention Centre, Wellington. CPNZ is funded at a National level by New Zealand Police and New Zealand Government, with the CPNZ National Office being based at Police National Headquarters in the National Prevention Centre. Community Patrols are organised and operated by their local communities and raise their annual operating expenses through local grants, sponsorship and donations. Each patrol caters to the needs of its local community, Patrolling where and when best supports the local Police and the local community.

Our Background

The Howick and Pakuranga Community Patrol has been serving the Howick and surrounding areas for over 25 years with the help of volunteers, fund raising and donations.

We are non-confrontational!
At present we have over 40 volunteer patrollers and two vehicles in our patrol group. Patrollers have no special powers and are subject to the same rules and regulations as everyone else We would like continue growing and helping out even more day by day. More members would enable more patrols to strengthen community efforts to remain safe .

Our Values: Professionalism, Aroha, Trust, Respect, Openness, Leadership, Service
