There are Neighbourhood Watch Co-Ordinators (NWCs) throughout Hambledon who disseminate crime prevention information and alerts about crime to their respective “watch” members in their locality. These Co-Ordinators work together to share information that may be of wider benefit to the Hambledon community. To that end, we have created a new NHW reporting / alert button on this website. You will see the logo in the right hand margin of this page. That takes you to an email form so residents can report directly to the NWCs about crime matters: suspicious activity, crime prevention information, road issues, or request assistance on crime matters. Residents still have recourse to contact the Police directly via 101 and 999.

So keep your eyes peeled for similar activity: unconvincing intruders, cars parked up in unusual places, lay-bys, remote drives etc. Also beware of front and back doors left open in hot weather.
