Yes there is no charge to join Neighbourhood Watch, simply register on the OurWatch website.

Some schemes collect a donation for the work they do in the community, this is usually very small and should be optional.

If you have any issues with scheme coordinators charging mandatory fees to join, let us know and we will discuss their policies with them.

Any registered* members of Neighbourhood Watch are eligible to apply for window stickers, where appropriate we recommend a sticker at the font and rear/side of the property where someone might have access.  They should be placed in a prominent location to be visible before someone enters your property.

If your vehicles are parked on or near your property you might also consider placing a sicker in the front window where the tax disc used to go, as this might be a more visible location.

The West Mercia Neighbourhood Watch member stickers have a space on the reverse to record the phone number of someone to contact in case of an emergency.

Any registered* scheme of more than 5 households will qualify for free street signs. (Subject to availability)  
We might have to charge for delivery if we need to package and post the signs/stickers.

Contact us by email  signs@westmercianw.org.uk for details.
