Building Bridges: Neighbourhood Support and Police Collaborate on Community Podcast


10th July 2024 – New Zealand – Join Eileen Hawkins from Neighbourhood Support Cambridge as she sits down with Senior Constable Deb Hann, our Cambridge Community Liaison Officer from New Zealand Police. Together, they'll explore vital strategies and insights on how we can band together as a community to safeguard against crime and antisocial behavior.


Take a listen here:




"Here at Cambridge Neighbourhood Support we are always looking for ways to communicate with our community.  It all started when Dane Clarke of the Sound Lounge said he was interested in promoting neighbourhood connection and safety in his neighbourhood.  While we walked around the street meeting his neighbours, we also got talking about his business making podcasts.   Then when Dane learned that we were run by a charitable trust he generously offered to gift us a podcast session. 


Of course we were excited to try something new and naturally we offered to share this opportunity with one of our key partners, the Cambridge Police.  This generated a quick collaboration and before we knew it our local Community Liaison Officer, Deb Hann and I were together in the Sound Lounge studio.


Both Deb and I answered questions about safety from crime, Neighbourhood Support and the Police as best we could during our half hour in the studio."
