We've worked with Police Scotland in Aberdeen to make a 30 second piece for broadcast on Original 106. P.C. Mike Urquhart has done a great job. Listen to it on the link below.
We had a great day yesterday at Rutherglen Exchange Shopping Centre, Glasgow with the Neighbourhood Watch Coordinators from Springhall and Cathkin, and Manor Way and Area, and officers from Police Scotland, carrying out a Community Safety Awareness Day.
We were out doing our thing at Cameron Toll, Edinburgh this Monday. Jen and Lesley have been flying the flag to eager shoppers and this large store just of the city by-pass. Next it's Rutherglen and Waverley Station.
A few years ago the then Neighbourhood Watch (NW) Coordinator for my street, Denholm Road in Musselburgh, East Lothian, decided that they could no longer do the role. NW Scotland reached out to all the members of the Watch to see if any one of us was prepared to take on the role. As I didn’t want it it to fold and knowing it is a great scheme, I took it on.
About 4 years ago, due to several housebreakings in our street some neighbours decided our Street should join Neighbourhood Watch Scotland (NWS) and I became the NWS co-ordinator.
Exceptionally helpful and friendly NWS staff helped me with this process.
