An initiative is currently under way to increase public representation in crime prevention measures in the Monmouthshire county. Area representatives are urgently sought to represent each policing ward at various levels in this campaign.
The Usk Neighbourhood policing team which covers Usk,Llangybi Fawr,Llanbadoc fawr,Goytre fawr,Llanover fawr and Raglan districts have been asked to find interested parties ,particularly Neighbourhood watch co-ordinators or representatives of similar schemes within our communities, to become involved in this initiative. We would like interested parties from any such watch or other organisation to come forward and contact the local policing team via e-mail at uskneighbourhoodpolicingteam@gwent.pnn.police.uk We would like to help to create a structure where Central Monmouthshire(which includes 13 wards in total) has eventually 2 executive representatives,ward representatives,then each area or street co-ordinators and so forth down to individual membership in a more defined structure than present.The Central Monmouthshire group will eventually form part of a county wide structure. The Usk community representatives will be asked to meet formally and eventually help form or elect the Executive Monmouthshire County Neighbourhood watch committee.This structure will allow us and partners to access to funding streams for a number of local crime prevention issues which are very important in our communities. I would urge contacts to please consider the importance of this structure and volunteer if you can to represent your community.It would be shame if Usk was not represented in the Central Monmouthshire panel. Please also consider forming a new neighbourhood watch if your street or area doesn`t have one. For example,we are presently assisting with the creation of a new Neighbourhood watch at "Burrium Gate Usk" , and with a" Horsewatch scheme " at Usk College and we will always help if we can. If you recieve this message via a third party and feel that your area,street or organisation need a "Neighbourhood watch" or similar scheme and would like to represent your community or organisation in this respect, then again please feel free to simply contact the team with your name,address,telephone number and e-mail address if possible. PC 680 Sophie Whiting,Crime and Disorder Reduction Officer(CADRO) -telephone 01495 232382715 or via sophie.whiting@gwent.pnn.police.uk can also be contacted if you have any queries about this e-mail.
