Proud to have been part of this great initiative serving the Wellington community for the past 7+ years. First as foundation volunteers and then contracted as coordinators. Working with a team of highly engaged and dedicated volunteers who gave their time selflessly was an absolute highlight for us. As they say in the Police, we are now 10/0 .
Celebrating 20 years in business.
Being in business today can be a bit of a roller coaster ride but it’s also incredibly rewarding and there’s so much fun and happiness along the way.
Agile working during Covid-19 lockdown
Putting our DIY skills to the test and utilising whatever we could find, a stand-up desk was built last night allowing us to work remotely from the sunny Kapiti Coast. #lovekiwiingenuity. Stay safe everyone.
Better Impact Conference Melbourne, March 2020
A great conference learning more about the Better Impact volunteer rostering software and how it can be utilised in providing solutions for managing not for profit personnel. Really enjoyed meeting other volunteer coordinators from New Zealand and Australia who happily and generously shared their experience and knowledge.
Camera Base: 7 years old today!
On this day back in 2012 there was no great fanfare, it was straight to business on the night Wellington hosted the premiere of The Hobbit. In classic New Zealand ‘she’ll be right’ style volunteers were called for, no experience necessary, and training was limited to “you’ll pick it up as you go along”. That first shift was pretty scary knowing the safety of international celebs was in our hands. But it was also fun, especially having a bird’s eye view of the stars!
The Camera Base now has 46 carefully selected and well-trained volunteers. We are very proud of the training and mentoring given to the volunteers before they go solo, and also of the ongoing learning opportunities provided such as; Imagery Analysis, Gang Awareness, Police 101 and Multiple Screen Usability. But the real stars are mostly definitely the volunteers, collectively contributing 403 hours of monitoring time per month for the Police.
Researching new technology
New driverless trains in Sydney. 100kmph, grade separated, automatic everything! We overshot a platform at one point and it backed up to align with the platform. Impressed.
Celebration of milestones
Business buzzword bingo?
Congratulations to our clients New World Waikanae
