The aim of Bourn Neighbourhood Watch is to improve communication between both residents and the local police in order to mount the most effective and rapid response to local crime.
In order to be successful we need as much participation from local villagers as possible so that we can keep everyone informed about any incidents as quickly as possible and feedback any details of crime occurring.
The most efficient way of passing on this information is by email, so if you would like to join the Bourn Neighbourhood Watch mailing list please contact the committee at nhw.bourn@gmail.com.
If an incident needs immediate attention you should dial 999 or use the police non-emergency number, 101, as appropriate. Do not contact Neighbourhood Watch at that point. (But please inform us later so we can let other residents know!). If however what you see is non urgent and may provide information to help police with an investigation then please pass it on to the committee.
The police are very supportive of this initiative as it makes their job much easier and is proven to reduce crime. We do hope that you are able to support us to make our village safer for everyone!
