A 2026 New Year resolution: from Milton Keynes Neighbourhood Watch

Dear Neighbourhood Watch Coordinator across the Milton Keynes district.

The Milton Keynes Neighbourhood Watch Association committee would like to thank you for all your work on behalf of safer and stronger neighbourhoods where you live. We would also like to wish you and your family a peaceful and healthy festive season.

Thinking ahead to the New Year we have produced a poster to encourage Neighbourhood Watch membership and applications to start new Neighbourhood Watch schemes. We know from recent research that crime is about 20% lower in Neighbourhood Watch areas so the work we do together does make a difference!      

Our new poster: "Here's a 2026 New Year resolution" - please find attached.

Please help us distribute the poster across your community and area. Do forward to your town/parish council for their newsletter and website etc. and also forward or post on local social media. It would be great to have the poster on notice-boards and likewise displayed by local retailers and other community spaces, if that is possible. Any help you can give to spread the word is greatly appreciated. 

Again, thank you for your involvement with Neighbourhood Watch, and we send you our best wishes,

MKNHWA committee
