Hi Neighbours,
I've attached the December newsletter for you.
A snippet from Don , there's plenty more about holiday safety in your home - having Xmas available through your windows, check encryption notes when purchaisng on line - use paypal or cr. card rather than debit cards or bank transfers. Keep your receipts for purchases in case of theft.
How to avoid car break-ins and there's lots on information in this newsletter & the stats for Onehunga's crime incidents - e.g. 10 " theft ex car" - please stop leaving valuables in sight, take them with you. !!
Now ...some good news.....
On a whole, reported crime for Onehunga specifically relating to burglary and vehicle crime has trended low each month for the whole of 2025 compared to previous years with some of the lowest months on record for these offence.
Merry Christmas and happy New Year. ( from Don )
