What about a project throughout the NWA in starting new Watches of say, only Twenty Houses
ie “Twenty’s Plenty” .This may prolong the life of the Watch when the coordinator is ageing and would be more attractive to new people to set up Watches. We all have many inactive Watches and this is not good, however this idea might change people’s attitude.

Webmaster comment: I think you are so right John! Maybe we should be thinking about encouraging new watches of even fewer houses. This may make those who don’t initially join, think again.




An initiative, to engage with young people and introduce them to NW. Certainly their views are important and we need to hear what they have to say.
The Kent Police Youth Panel is made up of young people, aged 11 and over who live in Kent and Medway, who tell us what they think about a number of crime and policing issues.
The panel helps us to understand the views and needs of young people across Kent and Medway. We use this information to help us improve the service provided by Kent Police.
How it works
During a year, panel members will be invited to take part in up to four surveys or discussion groups.
We will ask for your opinions by email, telephone or post or at informal discussion group meetings.
Get involved
If you are aged 11 years and older,(or know a young person who is), live in Kent and Medway and would like more information about becoming a Youth Panel member, please email the Youth Panel or call 01622 652667.
