Hello 

My name is Jo Hall, and I am the Chairperson of the Huntingdonshire Neighbourhood Watch Association (HNWA). I have been a scheme coordinator for over 22 years and also serve as a Membership Support Administrator (MSA). Together with my colleague Janet Thomas, who is HNWA’s main MSA, we oversee more than 200 Neighbourhood Watch (NHW) schemes in the area. Our role is to assist NHW coordinators with any queries or support they may need.

When required, Janet and I are available for home visits. Both of us have been granted access to the NHW National Database, which securely stores members’ contact information in compliance with the GDPR Act 2018. We ensure that all data is handled responsibly and with the utmost confidentiality.

I had the pleasure of chatting with Kathleen Brown recently about the above new scheme I have set up. For now, I'm acting as the Area Coordinator, but we're on the lookout for a volunteer to take on the NHW Coordinator role.  The role of a coordinator does not take up a lot of your time and can be rewarding. 

If you know of any neighbours or friends who are interested in joining the scheme, they can register on the NHW National Database by visiting www.ourwatch.org.uk and clicking on the "Join Us" button. All relevant information can be found there.

For any queries, please don’t hesitate to contact me via email at jo.hall@hnwa.uk or jjhall46@hotmail.com. I am more than happy to provide support and guidance.

Thank you for your continued involvement in making our community a safer and more connected place.
