Red Badge has been selected to deliver Waimakariri District Council’s after-hours security, animal and noise control services.

At its heart, this contract is about helping create a safer district. Animals managed safely and humanely. Community concerns responded to when they happen. Council facilities and public spaces looked after after-hours. And a reliable team on the ground when people need help.

For Council, that means confidence that when the working day ends, there’s still a capable local team looking after the things that matter to their community.

And for us, it means being more than a provider. We want to build a relationship where communication is open, problems are tackled together and Council has clear visibility of what’s happening across the service. That collaborative, continuously improving approach is a key part of our Red Badge values and our service.

We’re now two weeks into delivering the service, and the partnership is already taking shape. We’re looking forward to building on that foundation and continually improving the service for Council and the wider Waimakariri community.

Community safety is often about the moments that never make the headlines.

Recently, while on duty at, Jaron identified a potential threat involving a group targeting two young people. Through vigilance, calm decision-making, and quick action, he intervened discreetly before the situation could escalate. The young people were able to continue on their way, unaware they had even been at risk.

As the Centre Manager put it:

"Without Jaron's intervention, it looked certain the boys would have been threatened. Great work Jaron. Brave, and the risk to you was well managed."

This is a great example of how proactive security helps create safer communities, protecting vulnerable people before harm occurs. We're incredibly proud of Jaron and the team for the professionalism, awareness, and care they demonstrate every day. 👏🏆

Today we are celebrating John Edmundson, Lead Security Guard at Tūranga Library in Christchurch, and our 2026 National Guard of the Year.

John's journey to security wasn't a straight path. He's worked as an English teacher, taxi driver and night-shift machine operator before finding a career where he could make a real difference.

What stands out most isn't just his experience - it's his perspective.

He believes the best security comes from strong teamwork, good communication, and simply being present. Building relationships, treating people with respect, and preventing situations from escalating are all part of creating a safer environment for everyone.

It's this professionalism, compassion and commitment that earned John our National Guard of the Year award, and we're proud to have him representing Red Badge every day.

One of the most rewarding parts of leadership is seeing people grow into their role.

Over the past few months, Ace Shaw has shown outstanding growth and development, stepping up during incidents, handling challenging situations with increasing confidence, and continuing to learn from every experience.

The positive feedback we've received from our customers is a reflection of the professionalism and commitment Ace brings to the role each day.

Keep owning your successes, learning from every challenge, and building on the great progress you've made. Thank you, Ace, for your hard work and dedication.

Our people make the difference.

That's why being named Employer of the Year means so much to us. It's recognition of the culture we've built, the commitment we make to developing our people, and the incredible people across our business who support their teams, set standards, coach others to achieve them, and help keep our workforce safe, engaged, and growing.

Over the past few years, we've focused on creating an environment where people can build long term careers, grow their capability, and see a future in our industry. That investment has reduced employee turnover from 88% to 33%, delivered 186 internal promotions in 2025, increased employee engagement from 58% to 72%, and contributed to a 45% reduction in ACC claims and six consecutive months without a Lost Time Injury.

While these achievements are important for our people, they're equally important for our customers.

A stable, safe, engaged and highly capable workforce delivers greater continuity, stronger site knowledge, better decision making, and more consistent service. It reduces disruption, strengthens resilience, and gives customers confidence that the right people are on site when it matters most.

For us, this award isn't just recognition of being a great place to work. It's recognition that investing in people creates better outcomes for our customers, our communities, and our industry.

Thank you to every member of the Red Badge Group whānau. This achievement belongs to all of you.

As Te Wiki o te Reo Māori comes to a close, we're reflecting on the many ways our people embraced the opportunity to learn, practise, and celebrate te reo Māori throughout the week.

From daily word challenges and kupu labels around our offices, to frontline teams sharing videos of te reo in action on site, we've seen participation from across the business. We also wove te reo into our external and internal communications and finished the week together with a kai hākari.

For us, this connects directly to our Impact pillar: improving the long term wellbeing of our people, communities, and planet by owning and uplifting the impact we make.

Ngā mihi to everyone who got involved. Every conversation, every new word learned, and every effort to participate helps strengthen the connections we have with each other, our communities, and Aotearoa.

Manaakitanga. Often described as showing care, respect, and kindness towards others.

At Red Badge, every interaction matters. Whether it's supporting a colleague, assisting a member of the public, or working alongside our customers, we believe that treating people with respect is just as important as the work we do.

It's a value that helps build stronger relationships and safer communities.
