A Note from the Editors Welcome to our 2026/2027 online magazine. Over the past year, we’ve delivered a wide range of community engagement events, strengthening connections with our local Community Service Heroes, strategic partners, funders, and the organisations we work alongside. We look forward to continuing to support our communities to build strong local connections — encouraging socially connected, sustainable street groups that live by our message: Reach Out – Look Out – Help Out We remain committed to providing education, key messaging, and support to help create resilient, prepared neighbourhoods, while promoting prevention, caring for the vulnerable, sharing kai, and hosting Manaaki street events. We sincerely thank our Volunteer Committee—without them, there would be no Neighbourhood Support Waitākere. We also acknowledge and thank our funders and partners: • • Auckland Council—the four local boards in our area • • NZ Police • • Fire & Emergency NZ (FENZ) • • Auckland Emergency Management • • Our West CPNZ Groups Your support enables us to continue serving our communities. Special thanks to our sponsors—West City Autos, Mitre 10 Mega Westgate & Henderson, and Stanley Black & Decker—for supporting our Safer Plates and Free Tool Engraving events. Finally, thank you to our members, community, supporters, and our wider Neighbourhood Support network. Published By Waterford Press Ltd 112 Wrights Road, Addington, Christchurch.
