Invitation to Neighbourhood Watch Free Crime Prevention Webinars


Our free webinars are open to everyone and are designed to keep you informed about a range of topics. The following webinars will run in February 2023.

  1. PREVENTING BURGLARY WITH WIDEN: Inspector Matt Coe is going to lead us through a webinar on burglary prevention and the importance of keeping your property safe and working with your neighbours.
  2. UNDERSTANDING THE PSYCHOLOGY OF SCAMS: Back by popular demand, Paul Maskall will host a fireside chat on the psychology of scams and explain why scammers are so effective at their crimes. This fascinating insight into the way cybercriminals identify targets, often using data sold to them by other criminals, execute scams which use emotional blackmail and rational reasoning. Although a scary topic, the much better news is that he will teach you how to question and swiftly deal with approaches from the criminal fraternity. This is an unmissable opportunity to learn more about cybercrime and fraud.
  3. EXPLOITATION, GANGS AND KNIFE CRIME AWARENESS FOR PARENTS AND CARERS: Parents and carers will gain a greater understanding and awareness of gangs, knife crime and how to keep young people safe. Parenting children and young adults is hard. Sometimes it can be scary and overwhelming, with news stories and social media influencing how safe we feel our children are and the risks they may face in today’s climate. These two workshops help you learn more about what is regular teenage behaviour and what might be signs that a young person in your care is vulnerable to being groomed or exploited by others. Please try to attend both sessions so book both.
