Neighbourhood Watch – Working Together for Safer Communities
Neighbourhood Watch isn’t just about crime prevention – it’s about community care.
What we do:
Keep an eye out for suspicious activity
Support vulnerable neighbours
Share important safety updates
Offer reassurance visits to those living alone
Reassurance Visits – Supporting Our Community
Over the past week, I’ve carried out several reassurance visits to members of our community who live alone. For many, this visit can mean the world – sometimes I’m the only person they see all day.
If you know someone who would benefit from a friendly home visit, or you’re interested in joining or starting a Neighbourhood Watch scheme, please email: Michelle.Gillett@cheshire.police.uk
Let’s make sure no one feels forgotten this festive season! Together, we can spread kindness and cheer and make our community safer, stronger, and more connected!
