Northern Constabulary Police are seeking to ecnourage and assist the formation of neighbourhood watch schemes in the Inverness area. Constable
Craig Dale, Community Safety Officer at Burnett Road Police Station said:
"The Neighbourhood Watch Scheme is a useful initiative which generates community spirit and safer communities. I can only encourage community minded individuals who care about the area they live in to join the scheme."
Constable Dale’s views were endorsed by Inverness Area Commander, Chief Inspector Julian Innes who said:
"Neighbourhood Watch discourages crime and anti-social behaviour. Existing neighbourhood watches are doing an excellent job, and I am hoping that we can assist in the formation of many more schemes in and around the city and would urge interested parties to contact their local Police."
If you are interested in forming a neighbourhood watch or attending a short presentation on neighbourhood watch due to take place in early May contact Police at Burnett Road, Inverness tel: 01463 228473 or 228471.
