Farm Watch
North Wales is a rural area and, from time to
time, people in the countryside can be victims of crime. Police and
local farmers and rural communities work closely together in Farm
Watch schemes to prevent rural crime and protect farms.
Farm Watch is no different to Neighbourhood
Watch except that the houses and farms are much further
apart.
Farmers often have a great deal of equipment
that is portable and can be relatively easy to steal. By providing
crime prevention advice and regular text updates, all Farm Watch
members will be updated of crime trends and suspicious activity
which will help reduce the risk of members of the farming community
becoming victims of rural crime.
All who sign up to Farm Watch will
receive:
- Regular and practical crime prevention advice to ensure
property is kept as secure as possible
- A Farm Watch sign which will be placed on the outer gate of the
farm/rural property belonging to the member
- An SMS text messaging service which will keep members updated
with latest crime trends and any suspicious vehicles/ activity in
the area
- A Farm Watch pack which includes a property marking set so that
in the event of a theft it makes it harder for thieves to dispose
of stolen goods.
