It's voting time! 1 Sep - 30 Sep 2019
The Wellington North Community Patrol has been selected for this year’s Z Good in the Hood programme.
We are delighted to be selected as the funds raised to assist with paying for fuel to keep the patrol car on the road. Voting at Z Johnsonville commenced on 1 September and continues until 30 September. Each purchase will result in a token being supplied to the customer who can vote for their selected organisation.

Just purchase a coffee or a muffin and you will receive a token. The Patrol would be grateful for the public’s support to ensure the vehicle can patrol every week.



The Wellington North Community Patrol is in partnership with New Zealand Police and helps prevent crime and reduce harm and victimisation through the active presence of trained patrollers across the Wellington North suburbs. The area covered includes Ohariu, Churton Park, Glenside, Grenada Village, Woodridge, Paparangi, Johnsonville, Newlands, Broadmeadows, and Ngauranga. Both residential and commercial businesses are covered.



Community Patrols can undertake a wide range of roles in order to help keep the community safe. Patrols such as Wellington North Community Patrol can be seen cordoning off accident scenes on highways, guiding vehicles around hazards as well as a range of other exercises as per the instruction of New Zealand Police. These roles are often undertaken at night and during bad weather, putting these people at great potential risk. Patrol members can be called upon to assist in the event of large scale community events, natural disasters, and searches for missing persons.

The Patrol is a not-for-profit body and all members are volunteers.
