Neighbourhood Watch
Revitalised in 2004, the Little Wenlock Neighbourhood Watch team is co-ordinated by a village resident with local co-ordinators in key areas of the village as well as in New Works, Huntingdon, Coalmoor and the rural areas. Horse Watch is also incorporated into the scheme.
The group is involved in regular Borough-wide crime prevention activities and the Datalink emergency information scheme.
