By Neighbourhood Watch Hobsons Bay
With crime on the rise, and statistics showing Hobsons Bay had the second highest increase of any local government area within metropolitan Melbourne, Neighbourhood Watch Hobsons Bay was formed to educate the community on practical crime prevention measures, work collaboratively with Hobsons Bay Police, Council and local MP’s to help foster strong local networks and advocate for improved safety infrastructure across Hobsons Bay.
Although we’re newly formed we’ve already gained many Facebook followers, and group members. Both get the benefit of the best practice crime prevention methods we share. However, members are invited to our quarterly member meetings to learn what we’re working on and the progress we’ve made. They also have a voice in shaping our future focus, and may (if interested) volunteer to help us at local events from time to time.
Please join us at the next Neighbourhood Watch Hobsons Bay Community Meeting at the Brooklyn Community Hall. Discover our next meeting date on Facebook or use the QR code to the right.
It’s a great opportunity to meet our team, Hobsons Bay Police force and others, hear local updates, catch up with other members and learn more about how you can contribute to a safer Hobsons Bay.
Together, we can make Hobsons Bay an even better place to live, work, and raise families, now and into the future.
