NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH

LAUNCH OF NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH:


Neighbourhood Watch (NW) was formally launched at a public meeting for residents on 20th June 2013. It was introduced on roads where there was a strong level of interest and support registered together with an individual willing to act as a Area Road Co-ordinator. 

​

COMMUNICATION:

​

Facefoxrock@gmail.com or jeannettemee@gmail.com are the email addresses set up to facilitate communication regarding security recommendations, security issues and burgláries in the area.  A texting service via mobile phone mobile will, hopefully, be set up over the next few months on each road.

​

INFORMATION:


Information regarding the operation of Neighbourhood Watch can be found on www.garda.ie. Neighbourhood Watch works on the basis that each member of the community can help to improve the quality of life in the area by being security aware, keeping a look-out for neighbours and reporting suspicious activity to an Garda Siochána. The flow of information is crucial for its success in making our environment a safer place. In addition, please Click Here to ensure you are taking the necessary precautions to protect you and your home.

​

BURGLÁRIES:


In the event of a break in, immediately contact An Garda Siochána on telephone: 6665400 or 999 and then, if possible, text your Area Road Co-Ordinator with details who will text information of the incident to other residents on your road.

​

TO JOIN NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH:

​

Internal communication to and between residents is also important for Neighbourhood Watch to operate effectively therefore a high level of community interest and involvement benefits everyone.  Accordingly, we would ask those who have not registered to do so at their earliest convenience. The aim is to have all roads signed up by the end of the year so we would encourage you to join.

Please email your name, full address, email and contact phone number to facefoxrock@gmail.com or jeannettemee@gmail.com.  Alternatively, please post this information to Jeannette Mee, Evesham, Westminster Road, Foxrock, Dublin 18.

Crime Prevention Information Sheet
Burglars like easy opportunities. If they have to make a lot of noise, spend a lot of time or risk being seen, the chances are they won’t bother. A good rule of thumb is the 3 minute delay test. If you can deny entry for 3 minutes or more – chances are the burglars will go elsewhere.
