Who is the New Lynn Business Association?

New Lynn Business Association Inc. is an incorporated society; our primary objectives are to provide a forum for business betterment whilst marketing the town centre to our customers. We are interested in local economic development, urban regeneration, social integration with people in the town centre and to promote New Lynn as a place to work, live and shop.

The New Lynn Business Association is funded through a targeted rating system with the Auckland Council Business Improvement District as a partnership program. The New Lynn Business Association has a constitution which can be downloaded via this website. The members of the board are an elected voluntary executive committee. The executive business or building owners in New Lynn oversee the governance of the organisation. All executive members and the centre manager are available to talk with you about the organisation and our objectives.

St Johns Basic Life Support Training

NLBA recently held a St Johns Basic First Aid course, offered free of charge to members, as part of our ongoing commitment to supporting the development and wellbeing of our community. The course attracted an excellent turnout, reflecting the strong interest in gaining practical skills that can make a real difference in emergency situations.

The highly interactive and hands-on training provided participants with valuable knowledge and confidence to respond effectively when first aid is required. Throughout the day, attendees learned and practised essential lifesaving techniques, including CPR, the correct use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs), wound care and bandaging, and how to assist someone who is choking. The practical nature of the course allowed participants to gain real experience in applying these skills in realistic scenarios under the guidance of an experienced St John instructor.

Feedback from those who attended was overwhelmingly positive, with participants appreciating both the quality of the training and the opportunity to refresh or develop skills that could one day help save a life. The course was informative, engaging, and empowering, giving members greater confidence to respond in a range of emergency situations at work, at home, and within their communities.

NLBA is delighted to be able to offer valuable training opportunities such as this to members and looks forward to providing further professional development initiatives in the future. A sincere thank you to RSA New Lynn for generously hosting the event and helping make the day such a success.

Reporting crime and anti social behaviour

Please remember how important it is to report any crime or anti‑social behaviour you witness in our area.

Your reports help authorities respond effectively and build a clearer picture of what’s happening locally, allowing them to allocate resources where they’re needed most.

Please also let the NLBA know by emailing office@nlba.co.nz. This helps us build a clearer picture of what’s happening in the area and allows us to advocate on your behalf more effectively.

Call 111 and ask for Police when:

  • someone is badly injured or in danger
  • there's a serious risk to life or property
  • a crime is being committed and the offenders are still there or have just left
  • you've come across a major public inconvenience, such as trees blocking a highway
  • any of these things are happening now or have just happened.

If you can't decide if it's a real emergency and you're still worried, call 111 and ask us. We'll help you work out what to do.

An emergency TXT service for people with hearing or speech difficulties is available if you have difficulty hearing or talking on the phone. You can register now for the 111 TXT service.
