A Neighbourhood Watch is a group of people who band together for one purpose: to try to reduce crime and disorder in the community, reduce the fear of crime and improve their quality of life.

How do they do this? Just by being good neighbours – nothing more nor less than that.

There are some 400 Neighbourhood Watch groups within Guildford Borough, covering about 15,000 households. And anyone can join -- or start a new one ...

Getting in touch

Neighbourhood Watch members receive a fortnightly email newsletter, The Borough Bulletin, that keeps them up to date with information about incidents in their area; about the activities of thieves and confidence tricksters; about cowboy tradesmen, door‑to‑door peddlers -- and much else besides. Between issues, they may also recieve timely alerts to any goings-on that could affect the tranquility of their community. Click to see back issues of The Borough Bulletin.

Find out if your area is covered by one of our many neighbourhood watch schemes.

Simply select your area from the list and it will bring up a list of road names of which you can check to see if you're covered.
