Safer plates + engraving tools

Pablo Delgado from Beach Haven and Birkdale Community Watch

We are very proud to bring, for the first time in Beach Haven, this event to make our Community a bit safer. Thanks to Beach Haven & Birkdale Residents Association for let us use their car park and to Birkenhead RSA and Beach Haven Tennis Club for covering the cost of materials and tools we are able to offer these services free of charge. We're also grateful with NZ Police for its involvement.

Bring your car to have your rego screws replaced by tamper proof screws or bring your tools down to have them engraved.
Saturday 4 February,
10am - 12pm
Residents Association Car Park, 336 Rangatira Road, Beach Haven

Thieves have been targeting cars parked on streets at night to get legitimate number plates to disguise their stolen cars identity. Replacing the standard rego plates screws with tamper proof screws will protect your vehicles.

Tradies power tools are not so valuable for thieves if they've their rightful owner ID engraved. Should the tools get stoled and recovered, Police can easily get in touch.

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.

Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.
