A crime prevention event will be held in a town centre today (Saturday) as part of Neighbourhood Watch Week (June 14 – June 21).

Officers from Hitchin Safer Neighbourhood Team will be at Market Place on Tuesday between 10am and 3pm to recruit for Neighbourhood Watch’s OWL system (Online Watch Link), which allows people to be kept up to date with crimes and police events in their areas.

PCSOs will also be at the event to speak about issues or concerns.
