Getting you closer to nature is our thing. Nature can change your perspective whether it is by the mass of a thundering waterfall or in the presence of a wild kiwi. You will feel alive, reinvigorated, and changed.

Our founders Les and Olive Hutchins felt just that when our journey began in 1954. They pioneered a movement to show people the power of real places and the need to respect and cherish them.

Our experiences are as real as it gets. Take a closer look and see for yourself.

Tonight, we enjoyed a very fruitful meeting with recently appointed Sargent Hanfei Yue, officer in charge of Glenfield Police Station and Constable Devon Wright, community constable assigned to our area.
We were duscussing how to improve our communication with Police, we opened a new channel to share our findings and got advise about how to improve our patrols.

To keep an effective cooperation with NZ Police is one of our highest priorities and tonight we found a very supportive local Police team. We look forward to strengthen ties with them.
Remember: Beach Haven and Birkdale Community Watch efficiency depends on the number of patrols we deploy. The more patrols the less opportunity for crime. Get in touch now to give us a hand protecting our Community.

We kiwis love to lend a helping hand, to be that one good "bugger"; but it's better to be cautious.

To check rego plates using carjam.co.nz and NZ Police websites is a part of our protocol for any car found incorrectly parked, on a weird spot, potentially abandoned, damaged or with people inside and lights off. It's not a "stolen vehicle" procedure but more a "vehicle worthing attention" thing, anyway we advise you to use the same protocol specially if you're going to help an unknown person, on a lonely street, late night and with no lights to see as it was the case last night.

We decided to use these photos, with consent of the person on them, to show another service we give during our patrols: we try to help members of our Community. We want to build stronger ties among our neighbours and encourage solidarity with our example.
