Neighbourhood Watch

NHW Logo Neighbourhood Watch is one of the largest and most successful crime prevention initiatives. It is a method of developing close liaison between households in a neighbourhood, the local police and the local authority. The aim is to help people protect themselves and their properties, to reduce the fear of crime and improve their local environment by:

Improved home security
Greater vigilance
Fostering a community spirit

It has been proven that areas that operate a Neighbourhood Watch Scheme are less likely to be targeted by crime, rogue traders and distraction burglars. There are many advantages to be gained from being part of a Neighbourhood Watch scheme, including a sense of greater contentment and security amongst participants and a feeling of being involved in the community - bringing back the community spirit and giving you peace of mind.
