AN EYES AND EARS NETWORK FOR A CLEANER, SAFER KENT

If you have a keen interest in the cleanliness and safety of your local area this could be a volunteering opportunity for you.

We are recruiting volunteers to the Clean Kent Watch as part of Neighbourhood Watch Kent, to help observe and report illegal environmental activities.

'Eyes and ears' reporting plays a valuable role for the Clean Kent Campaign, which seeks to improve and enhance the quality of the local street scene by reducing fly tipping, abandoned vehicles and associated fires.

As a Clean Kent Watch volunteer you will be provided with an information pack which includes a unique identification number, enabling you to report information to trained staff 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Your reporting will be used to inform clean-up activity through to enforcement action and help prevent and deter these environmental offences.

A new partnership with Crimestoppers

Crimestoppers is a Charity which was set up in 1988 and works throughout the UK to identify, prevent, solve and reduce crime. It is not part of the Police or a branch of the Government. Crimestoppers enables anyone with information to pass on what they know about crime and criminals, without giving away their identity.

Kent Crimestoppers' main task is to promote the Crimestoppers scheme both generally and for specific locally targeted crime, types of crime and audiences. Our campaigns can target a wide range of crime problems, for example, burglary, graffiti, arson, drugs, anti social behaviour, vehicle crime, vandalism and the list goes on. The Kent Crimestoppers Board is committed to working with the Police and other partners in Kent and Medway i.e. The Borders Agency, Customs and Excise, Local Councils etc, to assess local needs and priorities, to design and implement campaigns to address these, to monitor outcomes and to raise sufficient funds to enable us to carry out our work effectively.
