The Association’s contribution to National
Neighbourhood Watch Week, this year will be a Crime Prevention Event on
Saturday 12th June at the Community Centre, West Street, Alresford.
This follows on from the success of two previous events in 1995 and 1999
and comes on Good Neighbour Day, which kicks off the Week. As well as
visiting our event, everyone is being encouraged to do a good deed for
their neighbour.
The event will have the full support and participation of Hampshire
Constabulary who will provide significant support with vehicles and
personnel in attendance.
Access to the Crime Prevention Event is free for all members of the
public and there will be a display of crime prevention information
covering property protection, property marking, personal safety,
burglary prevention, sensible precautions to up rate security, use of
extra lighting, and details of intruder alarms. Ample supplies of Home
Office literature on the many aspects of crime prevention will be
available.
Commercial firms offering crime prevention products will be present.
Utility companies wishing to reassure the public about visits by their
representatives will provide information. Experienced Committee members
will be on hand to cover any queries on the many aspects of preventing
crime, protecting elderly house owners and re-assuring the public.
