local Neighbourghood Watch.
We had the privilege of being invited along to the Crimestoppers Scotland and Wheatley Homes Glasgow community event in Wyndford, Maryhill today, where we met a lot of amazing people.
We had a great event today at Livingston Designer Outlet and The Centre Livingston working in partnership with colleagues from Police Scotland’s West Lothian Community Team and the Business Crime Prevention Unit where we were promoting Neighbourhood Watch Scotland, Neighbourhood Alert and Retail Watch.
We had a fabulous time today at the Improving Lives Event at Dalmuir Barclay Church, Clydebank.
A few years ago the then Neighbourhood Watch (NW) Coordinator for my street, Denholm Road in Musselburgh, East Lothian, decided that they could no longer do the role. NW Scotland reached out to all the members of the Watch to see if any one of us was prepared to take on the role. As I didn’t want it it to fold and knowing it is a great scheme, I took it on.
About 4 years ago, due to several housebreakings in our street some neighbours decided our Street should join Neighbourhood Watch Scotland (NWS) and I became the NWS co-ordinator.
Exceptionally helpful and friendly NWS staff helped me with this process.
