Neighbourhood Watch involvement in Civil Contingencies

I write as the ACPO lead for Neighbourhood Watch (NHW) and other watch schemes to ask you to pass the briefing note at Appendix A, on the potential for NHW to be involved in contingencies planning, to the attention of NHW members in your Police area. I would also ask that it is passed to the attention of Police staff already engaged in Civil Contingencies Planning, so they are aware of its contents, should they be approached by NHW members.

For your information, it has been developed in conjunction with the Civil Contingencies Secretariat of the Cabinet Office and agreed by the ACPO portfolio holder on Emergency Procedures (DCC Alan Goodwin, Derbyshire).

This document will also be circulated to the Neighbourhood and HomeWatch Network (NHWN) who represent the movement in England and Wales.

Yours Sincerely

F N Whiteley
Chief Constable
