Our vision
A society where neighbours come together to create safer, stronger, and more active communities

Trusted: Reliable and respected
Active: Energetic and practical
Our strategy 2026-2030
We are committed to a Britain where neighbours look out for each other. Where being neighbourly means that people of all ages and backgrounds come together to create safer, stronger, more inclusive communities. Where loneliness and isolation give way to trust and togetherness
In 2025 we came to the to the end of our previous five-year strategy. We commissioned Caplor Horizons to help us work with members, staff and stakeholders to develop a new strategy which will shape our work until 2030. We agreed three goals:
- Goal one: Bring neighbours together. We will inspire more people to build safer, friendly communities that people feel a part of.
- Goal two: Show our impact. We will clearly demonstrate the real difference Neighbourhood Watch makes, through powerful stories and evidence.
- Goal three: Be trusted and innovative. We will be recognised as a reliable and forward-thinking organisation, tackling today’s crimes with fresh ideas to build safer, better neighbourhood.
We'd like to thank all our members, trustees, stakeholders and staff who contributed to the extensive strategy development process. Find out how we engaged people to create the strategy here.
