Benefits of Membership
CCNWatch covers 13 streets in the central Charlton area. It is a free, voluntary organisation, encouraging neighbours to look out for each other, develop community spirit, have a collective stronger voice in their community and work together to protect their community and report suspicious people/incidents to the police.
But there are also other benefits of being a member of CCNWatch.
The CCNWatch:
acts as a deterrent to burglars, car thieves and unscrupulous door-to-door callers, it is proven that there is less crime in Neighbourhood Watch areas (Home Office figures); encourages neighbours to communicate with, and look out for, one another and to work together; supports and give guidance on personal and household security; encourages local residents to work with local officers and the SNT to tackle community issues; reduces fear of crime; produces UPDATES on general community safety issues and INSTANT ALERTS for urgent events that residents need to know about; enables residents to access discounted Home Insurance through most insurance companies; Membership is FREE.
