The objective of the Neighbourhood Watch organisation is to build a stronger more connected community, which in turn will help lead to a safer community where crime and anti-social behaviour are less likely to happen. The ultimate objective is to cover all streets within the village with a Neighbourhood Watch (NW) street co-ordinator while continuing to expand membership within the individual areas, however it is recognised that this objective is likely to be an ongoing activity.
