NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH

The animals pictured above are meerkats. What's so special about them is their natural instinct to work as teams to keep themselves and their young safe. they take it in turns to go on look-out duty and by being alert, warn others in the group of anything suspicious or threatening.

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. It's about being a good neighbour and caring about the community.

There's more to Neighbourhood Watch than protecting homes and property against burglary. By working together, neighbours can help reduce all sorts of local crimes. They can also take action to improve the environment by getting something done about things like vandalism, graffiti, poor lighting and 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 also 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.

The crime rate in Sutton is one of the lowest in London and this is partly due to the thriving Neighbourhood Watch Group in Sutton Cheam and Worcester Park. Most wards in this sector hold meetings once a quarter and a newsletter called "Watchword" is delivered to all members 4 times a year. If you are not sure if you are a member of Neighbourhood Watch or just require details of meetings etc. Please telephone the Sutton Community Police Office on:
