Just a quick reminder that there’s a Lee Green Neighbourhood Watch meeting tomorrow night from 7pm at the Church of the Good Shepherd on Handen Road.

If you’d like more information, contact Neighbourhood Watch coordinator Linda Cohen on 8463 0798 or email raylyns1 {at} ntlworld(.)com

See you there!

Tonight I went to a street briefing organised by our local Safer Neighbourhood Team.  I was there with two hats on - as a local Councilor and as a resident in the street concerned - in this case, Leahurst Road.

The street briefing had been called following some concern at two street robberies in the area.    Lee Green’s generally a comparatively safe place to live, so these two street robberies had worried people.

The good news is that the meeting has sparked interest in formng a neighbourhood watch scheme along Leahurst Road.  The local neighbourhood watch coordinator, Linda Cohen, came along to  explain how such a scheme would work, and there was a good deal of interest (I signed up myself too!).

If you’d be interested in getting involved in a neighbourhood watch either on Leahurst Road, or anywhere else in the ward, let Linda know on 8463 0798 or email raylyns1 {at} ntlworld(.)com or contact the SNT on 8721 2482 or email leegreen.snt {at} met.police(.)uk

On a related note, Linda (who’s doing a great job!) has organised a ward-wide Neighbourhood Watch meeting next Wednesday (16th April) at 7pm at the Church of the Good Shepherd on Handen Road.  I’ll hopefully see you there!
