Current Initiatives
'Hello Neighbour' Calling Cards
NHW has produced 'Hello Neighbour' calling cards. The calling cards can be used as a way of introducing neighbours to each other while promoting NHW and safety in the community. Neighbours can write a short message on the calling card and then post them to another neighbour.
Contact your local NHW group to get some cards or you could print the card yourself by downloading it here.
Shop theft poster
SA Police have produced a new poster aimed at preventing theft from retail stores. If you or someone you know would like some posters for a local shop or retail outlet, visit your local police station.
Operation Hurricane 2
Neighbourhood Watch SA launched a five-week campaign in support of SAPOL's Operation Hurricane 2 which targeted crimes against property. The campaign provided useful tips on how you can avoid falling victim to property crime.
Caravan and recreational vehicle security
SAPOL in partnership with Neighbourhood Watch SA developed a handy booklet full of security and crime prevention tips for anyone who travels with a caravan or recreational vehicle. Before you go away on your next caravanning adventure, make sure you check it out.

Preventing number plate thefts
Neighbourhood Watch SA and SAPOL have partnered with the RAA to offer tamper-resistant number plate screws which can be fitted to your vehicle free of charge by an authorised RAA repairer.
Free food safety courses
Neighbourhood Watch SA encourages all of our volunteers to complete the free food safety training courses offered through your local council's website. It could come in handy for your NHW group's next fundraising BBQ.
NHW bin stickers
Neighbourhood Watch SA produces bin stickers for residents to fix on their council bins providing a visible crime prevention message and encouraging people to report suspicious behaviour. The NHW team is always happy to provide these stickers to interested community members, so contact our team to get a sticker for your own bin:
