Requesting assistance: Locating Ella
Counties Manukau Police continues to appeal to the wider Māngere community for their assistance in locating Ella Davenport.
Ella, 57, has been missing from her Hain Avenue home since Friday 20 June.
Police have information she is still in the local community, with the last unconfirmed sighting of her being around the BP on Massey Road in late June.
She may also frequent the 24-hour laundromat near the petrol station.
Acting Detective Senior Sergeant Robb Kerr says: “I would like to thank those in the community who have contacted us or spoken to Police about Ella in recent weeks.
“I’m asking for residents in Māngere and Māngere East to keep an eye out for her.
“If you see her, please contact Police straight away.
“We are concerned for Ella’s wellbeing; on top of this we have been experiencing quite cold and wet weather recently.”
If you have other information which might assist Police, you can update us online now or call 105.
Please use the reference number 250621/8662 for Ella’s case.
Police and Ella’s family thank the community for their assistance.
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
