Our Community Partners
Community Patrols of New Zealand is dedicated to helping build safer communities in partnership with NZ Police and other organisations.
Organised and operated by the local community. Working together to assist police and other agencies in building safer local communities.
NZ Police
Community Patrols of New Zealand and New Zealand Police have an official partnership as governed by a signed Memorandum of Understanding. This partnership supports Patrols through the allocation of local Police Liaison Officers and an avenue for local intelligence which assists Patrols in their duties. CPNZ supports NZ Police through acting as a second set of ‘eyes or ears’ through observing and gathering intelligence.
Our Community police station is the Howick police Station
Neighbourhood support
Community Patrols of New Zealand and Neighbourhood Support New Zealand have been partners in building safer communities for many years. Many Patrols have local connections with Neighbourhood support groups as they assist each other in fundraising, looking at local initiatives and providing intelligence to one another.
National Emergency Management Agency
The primary function of the National Emergency Management Agency is to support and enable communities to manage emergencies. The National Emergency Management Agency works with the diverse range of agencies that comprise the emergency management sector, each with different responsibilities and focus, and varying levels of resources and capability. Organisations involved include communities and their local authorities. CPNZ coordinates with NEMA NZ nationally to gain an understanding of how Patrollers could be utilised in an emergency. Most Patrols continue this coordination at a more detailed level to ensure their Patrollers know how to respond to an emergency to assist their local Civil Defence Emergency Management group.
Community Cam
Community Cam is a voluntary, not for profit community initiative where people can register a property with CCTV, and upload CCTV footage, to help solve crime in their neighbourhood.
When a crime is committed, the NZ Police can refer to Community Cam to quickly identify CCTV locations of registered users in and around the scene of the crime. This then allows the police to contact you to help with an investigation.

Our patrol falls under the Manukau district umbrella. Our neighbouring patrols are: Botany Patrol, Mangere Bridge Patrol, Manurewa Patrol, Papatoetoe, Pohutukawa Coast patrol.
