The Neighbourhood Watch is now in place. At present it will be run as a parish council initiative but would hope in time it could be coordinated by residents. In the meantime we would really like residents to join us. The Watch covers all aspects of crime, ASB, fly tipping, any social concerns, vulnerable persons, environment shortfalls, etc. We just need members to report and monitor issues. There is a link to a dedicated Facebook page on LINKS.
