The Higher the Viligance the Lower the Crime

Welcome!

The Ladden Garden Village Neighbourhood Watch was started back in February 2020, the Watch started just before Covid-19 locked down the country, since then our community has faced a number of challenges in the form of vehicle break-ins and attempted burglaries, and this Watch has helped to bring the community together.

Living within a Neighbourhood Watch scheme area reduces the likelihood of being a burglary victim. Households living in a Neighbourhood Watch area can experience 21% fewer burglaries than similar households.

There are many benefits of belonging to a Neighbourhood Watch:

  • You will become aware of crime reduction and detection methods which will help keep your home and belongings safe.
  • Guidance on how to order street signs and stickers to heighten awareness that a ‘watch’ operates in the area.
  • Receive help setting up a watch on your street and methods on how to approach your neighbours to get it started.
  • Increased sense of personal control and responsibility for security
  • The extra security which belonging to a Neighbourhood Watch scheme offers might even mean that you can get a premium discount from your insurance Company.
  • Reduce the fear of crime.
  • Assist in the detection and apprehension of criminals by Neighbours providing information and video evidence to the police.

We now have a Ladden Garden Village Neighbourhood Watch Facebook page, please like and follow if you would like to be kept updated with national, regional and local campaigns and police alerts for our area.
