Neighbours Supporting Neighbours - Volunteers Needed

When severe weather or other disruptions affect our community, being connected and prepared can make all the difference.

About the Titirangi Resilience Group

The Titirangi Resilience Group is a group of volunteers, including the Titirangi Community House, building a network of local volunteers to help neighbourhoods be ready, connected and resilient before, during and after a weather event/disaster.

Street volunteers are friendly local points of contact who help their neighbours prepare, stay informed and support one another when it matters. You don’t need to be an emergency expert or have special skills, you just need to care about your community and be willing to help.

What do street volunteers do?

Help neighbours prepare for severe weather and disruptions
Check in with neighbours to see if they’re okay
Share important information, local updates and resources
Identify neighbours who may need extra support
Connect neighbours who can help one another
Share local needs with the wider resilience group
Help your street stay connected and informed

We’ll give you the tools:

2-Hour Practical Training

Resources and Information

Guides and tools to help you and your neighbours prepare.

A Local Support Network

Connect with other street volunteers, community groups and emergency response networks.

Volunteers are not expected to be on call 24/7 or manage emergencies themselves. It’s about knowing your neighbours, sharing information, checking in and helping people connect when support is needed.
