Neighbourhood Watch is about...

Watching and caring - not snooping

That’s what 'Neighbourhood Watch' is all about - looking out for each other. Neighbours uniting and acting

together means that dozens of eyes and ears are ready to pick up on anything happening in the neighbourhood

that could cause worry or concern. Its not about being nosy or interfering, it's about being a good neighbour and

caring about your community.

A better quality of life

And there is more to Neighbourhood Watch than protecting homes and property against burglary. By working together, neighbours can help reduce all sorts of local crimes and associated problems. They can take action to improve the environment by getting something done about things like vandalism, graffiti, poor lighting and a lack of local amenities.

As well as making the neighbourhood a better place to live and work in, tackling local problems and concerns will help people to feel less nervous about crime - especially those who are elderly or vulnerable for other reasons.

Neighbourhood Watch is for everyone

Neighbourhood watch is about bringing people closer together and involving them in local life. A stronger community spirit grows as people get to know each other and look out for one another.

Anyone can join a 'Neighbourhood Watch' team and everyone can play a part in its achievements. And any community or neighbourhood - however large or small - can set up a scheme.
