Do you live in the countryside?

Neighbourhood Watch offers some villages and towns the opportunity to receive information about what's happening in their road. For those of us who live in the countryside, we need to look at a much wider area for our crime information. Criminals are now more mobile than ever and in return we need to be more aware and vigilant.

Often we find that thieves are opportunists who drive around looking to find a soft target. If we work together and lookout for our neighbours, however distant across the fields, we can turn our rural location into a strength rather than a weakness.

The more eyes and ears we have the greater our chances of success.
