Just saying hello or G'day and exchanging phone numbers is a big step in helping each other. Always be alert and look out for your neighbours, and report any suspicious activity. "All we need for crime to prosper is for good men and women to do nothing."

If anyone would like a Rural Watch sign to put on their gate or wishes to engrave their belongings (engraver can be borrowed), contact Barry Howard.
