Locals helping locals get ready
The Papakura Community Resilience Network (CRN) strengthens disaster preparedness in Papakura, Drury, and Takaanini by building local connections, raising community awareness, and providing critical resources. Our goal is to create a more resilient community through collaborative support.
It starts with neighbours
Community resilience begins with neighbourhoods. That means getting to know folks on your street and building a support network. Street Meets are a fun way to get to know the folks on your street. Become a CRN Registered “Street Leader” and organise a cook out in your neighbourhood.
What we do
Disaster Training
Our Disaster Training sessions equip you with practical skills and knowledge to handle emergencies confidently. Learn how to prepare your home, help your neighbors, and respond effectively when disaster strikes. Join us to become a vital part of our community’s resilience.
Community Hubs
Community Hubs are the heart of our resilience network. These designated gathering points are places where neighbors come together, share resources, and support one another during times of need. Find your nearest hub and get involved in strengthening our community’s readiness.
Street Meets
Street Meets are fun, casual events that bring neighbors together over a BBQ or shared meal. They are a great way to build friendships and foster connections that will help us all in times of need. Come along, meet your neighbors, and help build a resilient Papakura!
