Beach Haven and Birkdale Community Watch

  People tend to think that we do patrols to catch the bad guys red handed, although such a thing is certainly possible, the main benefit of our patrols is prevention. Patrolling regularly an area and being visible while doing so, might convince potential offenders that chances to be caught are too high to even try. Our approach is preventative: reducing chances for offenders to commit a crime and get away with it will avoid crimes. That's what we do. We're locals, taking care of our Community. Come with us to patrol our neighbourhood. Get in touch now and ride along with us, give it a try with no obligation. Together we care.

  Police would like to remind vehicle owners to ensure their vehicles are secured and any valuable items are removed when they’re unattended. While Police are committed to actively investigating vehicle theft and holding offenders to account, people should take precautions to prevent their vehicle from being targeted. 🔐 Ensure your vehicle is locked, and all valuable items removed or concealed from view when you are not with it. 🔐 If possible, park your vehicle in a garage, but if it must be parked on the road, try to park in a well-lit, busy area. 🔐 Invest in a steering wheel lock or other anti-theft devices for vehicles and trailers. Anyone that sees suspicious activity around vehicles can call Police on 111 if it’s happening now, or 105 after the fact. A message from North Shore, Rodney and West Auckland Police
