Have you been noticing crime happening in your local Neighbourhood (Like us), want to do something about it and you do not know what/ do not know how? Are you interested in joining the police in the future? Are you interested in getting the volunteer version of "Better Work Stories"? Have you seen our Community Patrol vehicle coming around your local suburb and wondered who we are? Are you curious as to what we Community Patrollers do?
Wellington South Community Patrol are offering the chance for you to join us on a patrol to see what us Patrollers from Wellington South and East patrols do and to answer any questions you may have. This offer goes to you Eastern Wellington Residents as well.
Our Patrols both started in 2011, and since then have had a lot of successes ever since. We are the the ''eyes and ears" for Police on Weekend Nights and during the Day (during the week). We also do events (Newtown Fair Day, for example) and emergency patrols as well.
If you live in Southern or Eastern Wellington, please reply below or message us for a ride along.
It is voluntary, but it is well worth it.
Thanks and we look forward to hearing from you.

The Courtenay Central Courtyard Christmas Playground will give locals the opportunity to fully embrace the season with a winter wonderland-themed space, complete with Saturday Christmas markets, live music, pop-up sweet treats, Little Elves workshops at a custom-made Gingerbread House and free throwback Christmas movies every Friday.
A Courtyard Gift Wrapping station will also be available from 14 December, where gifts will be wrapped for a gold coin donation to local charity KidsCan.
Julie Chapman CEO and Co-founder of KidsCan says the charity is grateful to be involved and currently assists 44 schools in Wellington.
“We’re really thankful to be the recipient charity of this fantastically festive Christmas playground pop-up. Since 2005, KidsCan has been helping create brighter futures for Kiwi kids living in hardship by giving them food in school, clothing, health and hygiene items, so they can get into the classroom in a position to learn.
“We have a strong connection with Wellington as we proudly support 44 KidsCan schools in the Capital. Each gold coin given this December will go towards changing the lives of Kiwi kids who need a hand-up, what an incredible Christmas gift! A sincere thank you from the KidsCan team, our schools and the children we support.”
Courtenay Central’s Amy Boston says the Centre is proud to be bringing this initiative to Wellington especially as it will benefit more local children in low decile schools.
“It was really important to us that we were able to find a way to give back to the members of the local community who find it tough to get by throughout the year.
“As well as bringing families together, this event will see local children benefit through a charity network which helps feed and clothe them at a time when many of us are at our most generous,” she says.
As well as donating a coin for local children, families will also be able to celebrate the spirit of Christmas with a family photo. This year they’ll even be able to include the family pet with Pawtraits which will be part of the Awkward Christmas Portrait Station.
Other entertainment set to take place at The Courtyard Christmas Playground during December includes In-House Monogramming, a Flash Mob Choir, Snow Blower, and Winter Wonderland Styling Concept Installation with Light Project Installation and Workshops with well-known stylists demonstrating floral arranging, candle making, and table dressing.
Families will also be treated to some free movies with Christmas classics showing every Friday evening, Polar Express, Elf and Love Actually will screen on consecutive Friday evenings at 6pm from 8 December. Christmas-themed treats and popcorn will be available for purchase to fully embrace the festive season flicks.
The Courtyard Christmas Playground will run from 2 December until 24 December.

Wellington Water is calling on the residents of Wellington, Porirua and the Hutt Valley to cut back on their water use this weekend, and make sure they observe garden watering restrictions.

Last Sunday … View moreWellington Water is calling on the residents of Wellington, Porirua and the Hutt Valley to cut back on their water use this weekend, and make sure they observe garden watering restrictions.
A prolonged dry spell, with more to come according to forecasters, has seen water use soar. Last Sunday consumption in the four cities reached 171 million litres for the day (MLD) – around 30 million litres more than a typical day, and the highest November total in five years.
“Last time we had such a warm, dry spring, we ended up with a hosing ban in summer,” said Jeremy McKibbin, Wellington Water’s manager of treatment plant operations.
Mr McKibbin said there are a number of water supply challenges he is dealing with, including having reduced supply from the Waiwhetu Aquifer until new ultraviolet treatment plant comes online in January, that makes it important water demand does not exceed 160 MLD too often.
“We’re also putting in new filters in the treatment plant at Te Marua, where our summer storage lakes are, to reduce the risk from toxic algae.” The new filtration system is expected to be fully operational in December.
As river supplies dry up, the aquifer and storage lakes are what keep the Wellington metropolitan water supply going.
“There will be enough water to go round if everyone does their bit,” said Mr McKibbin.
“This includes following garden watering restrictions, and water saving tips like using buckets to wash the car, or a broom to sweep the path, rather than the hose.
Water patrols will be starting this week, to ensure people are following the restrictions. Restrictions are based on the odds and evens system, which allows residents to use one unattended watering system (sprinkler, irrigation system, soaker hose), from 6-8am and 7-9pm, according to their street address and the date:
· Residents of odd numbered houses (e.g. 1, 13, 57) can water on odd numbered dates (e.g. 1st, 15th, 23rd) of the month, between 6-8am and 7-9pm only.
· Residents of even numbered houses (e.g. 2, 4, 12) can water on even numbered dates (e.g. 2nd, 6th and 24th) of the month, between 6-8am and 7-9pm only.
