Joining a neighbourhood watch scheme can make your residential area a less appealing environment for criminals to operate in if they feel they could be easily identified or caught on camera. Similarly, consider joining your local Nextdoor community, a social networking platform designed for local communities that will also alert you of crime and safety alerts. By being part of your community, if your car does get stolen, you may have a chance of someone spotting it if your community knows to keep an eye out!
