Neighbourhood Watch is a community based crime prevention program that represents a partnership approach to community policing. Neighbourhood Watch aims to:

• Minimise the incidence of preventable crime
• Deter criminal activity by increasing the probability of apprehension
• Reduce the fear of crime
• Increase the reporting of crime and suspicious behaviour
• Improve the degree of personal and household security through education programs
• Expand the program's involvement in wider community safety and crime prevention initiatives including yearly Neighbourhood Watch conferences
