Neighbourhood Watch

Neighbourhood Watch is one of the most popular and successful crime prevention schemes and is built on the simple idea that by getting together with your neighbours, you can take positive action to help cut local crime.

It gives people the opportunity to work in partnership with their neighbours, the police and other agencies and make a real difference to their community.

Neighbourhood Watch schemes are community initiatives that are supported by the police but not owned or run by them. Leicestershire Constabulary supports schemes that are organised and run in a non-discriminatory manner.
