The weather stayed dry, and we managed to speak to a number of people about Neighbourhood Watch Scotland and highlight the benefits of communities getting involved in Neighbourhood Watch Scotland Schemes and signing up to Neighbourhood Alert. It was great to hear that some of the people we spoke with are already part of their local watch.
It was also a good opportunity to see some of different appliances and take a tour around the museum and see the changes throughout the years.
