Make your place less inviting — to crooks!
It’s easier than you think, and we’ll show you how.
Most crime is opportunistic. Thieves look for easy targets — places where they won’t be seen, heard, or challenged.
That’s where CPTED comes in.
It’s not some technical theory. It’s just common sense, done smartly.
A clear front yard makes it harder for someone to hide.
Good lighting shows you care — and makes burglars think twice.
A tidy fence, a visible number, and a friendly neighbour? That’s security.
Neighbourhood Watch has a free booklet that walks you through the basics of CPTED — in plain English.
It explains what works, why it works, and how easy it is to apply the principles at your home, business, or street.
No jargon. No stress. Just simple changes that make a big difference.
Download your free copy today and learn how to make your space safer — for you, your family, and your community.
Here it is: https://nhw.com.au/crime-prevention/cpted/
Please share with family, friends and work-mates.

Discover how Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) can transform spaces into safer, more secure environments. Our booklet breaks down CPTED principles, offering practical strategies to reduce crime risks through thoughtful urban planning, architecture, and community engagement

How can you be sure your child is ready to walk or ride to school, their friend's house or the local playground by themselves? Neighbourhood Watch’s "Travelling safely in the community" interactive learning journey at www.nhw.com.au/kids can help prepare your child for safe, independent travel around your neighbourhood. It's full of quizzes and activities you can do together to improve your child's safety knowledge, increase their confidence and empower them to trust their instincts and react appropriately to unsafe situations. And the best part is, you can stop and come back at anytime.

Happy Birthday Neighbourhood Watch! 🥳🎂

If there’s a knock at the door – teach kids to yell out “Dad/Mum, there’s someone at the door!” Or if you’re elderly or live alone, make some noise. Don’t ignore the knocks and calls, or make a point of staying quiet, as crooks could be testing to see if anyone is home. To learn more about keeping kids safe at home or in the community, visit www.nhw.com.au/kids
