It’s Neighbourhood Watch Week.

This week is national Neighbourhood Watch week. It’s a chance to say thank you to everyone involved and to see what else can be done to help support neighbours everywhere.

1st-7th June 2024 is National Neighbourhood Watch Week.

OurWatch is leading the week – see their website for details: https://www.ourwatch.org.uk/nwweek

Locally, Humberwatch is hosting a conference in Hull for Neighbourhood Watch coordinators, where we’ll be celebrating Neighbourhood Watch and saying thank you to all those involved.

This is also national Volunteers’ Week and it’s important to remember that everyone involved with Neighbourhood Watch is a volunteer and support their communities through their own efforts in their own time.  A big thank you to everyone involved with Neighbourhood Watch across Humberside.

In North East Lincolnshire this week we’re working with residents to help encourage more new Neighbourhood Watch Groups to get started.  If you’d like to chat about creating a group, please contact Karl Elliott at NELwatch/VANEL via karl@nelwatch.org.uk and we can organise a conversation.

If you’re already involved with Neighbourhood Watch – use this week as a chance to do even more with your neighbours! Have a safe week.
