Joining a scheme

When you become part of Neighbourhood Watch, you don’t sign up to a specific programme. Every scheme is different because each is run by and for the members of its community, to meet that community’s specific needs.

Interested in finding your local group and become a member? Here’s how to get started.

To find your nearest Neighbourhood Watch groups quickly and easily, use our postcode search, then click on the links to find out how to contact the local scheme coordinators. They will help you join and keep you informed of news and activities.

Alternatively, find your local neighbourhood policing team here and ask them about local groups. The police don’t run Neighbourhood Watch, but they will have information about groups in your area.

If there is no scheme in your area, you might like to think about starting your own. For more information go to the section on starting a scheme.
