About us
We are lucky to live in an area of low crime but houses still get burgled, cars stolen and garden sheds broken into. Front doors and back doors get left unlocked or a laptop is left in a car in full view for the opportunist thief.
This is where Neighbourhood Watch can act as a reminder for us all not to let our guard down at any time. Fleet & District has some 6,000 households as members. In those houses are 18,000 pairs of eyes, assuming an average of 3 people per household. Little happens without someone seeing it. How that incident is interpreted by the observer dictates whether the police are contacted or not.
The police have limited manpower resources and will target their efforts on major problems such as drugs and certainly cannot be everywhere. We really can make a difference to the security of our area by reporting what we see rather than feeling that it is none of our business.
It is not snooping, it is a way that we can look after our neighbours and ourselves.

Newsletters
In these unprecedented times the visitors to our website will be very aware of the current challenges associated with the Coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic.
Of course we are particularly concerned for the health and safety of our NHW members, many of whom are in the older and more vulnerable age group. Consequently we have taken the serious and regrettable decision to cancel the printed version of the NHW newsletters until further notice.
Quarterly editions of the newsletter will still be published, but distribution will only be by email or by using the links below where you can choose to view the current or previous newsletters.
You can also subscribe to future NHW newsletters by following the guidance shown below.
To receive regular copies of the Newsletter please send an email to editor.fleetnhw@gmail.com stating your name, email address and request to join the Newsletter subscription list.
