Big Day Out at Bunnings
Assistant Commissioner Scott Tilyard announced the launch of the new Neighbourhood Watch Information brochure on Saturday 18th November 2006.
The launch was held at the Bunnings Warehouse at Derwent Park where the Neighbourhood Watch trailer was on display to provide information for Bunnings customers.
The new 2007 Neighbourhood Watch calendar was also available and it was difficult to keep up with demand!
Richard Swann (right), manager of Bunnings Warehouse addressed the gathering to announce their $10,000 sponsorship of Neighbourhood Watch in Tasmania. Additional funding is being gratefully received from Tasmania Government, Australian Paper, CGU Insurance and Metro.
The new full colour brochure introduces Neighbourhood Watch to those who may not know of the benefits of being involved. It answers the questions "What and Where is Neighbourhood Watch?", "Why is it needed?", "How does it Start?" and "What is involved?".
The key message from the brochure is that Neighbourhood Watch depends on a commitment of co-operation between the community and Police but more importantly between neighbours themselves.
The new Neighbourhood Watch hotline number is 1300 139 138 and can be used to contact Community Policing Officers in your local area.
