Could you volunteer for Worthing's Neighbourhood Watch?
Volunteers teamed up with Adur and Worthing Police on Sunday to promote their activities and provide hints on crime prevention to gardeners visiting Wyevale Garden Centre in Findon.
Neighbourhood Watch is a voluntary network of individual members and street schemes where neighbours work together to build safe and friendly communities.

Visitors to the event included the High Sheriff of West Sussex, Caroline Nicholls, who said: “Neighbourhood Watch is clearly much more than just a yellow sticker in the door – the volunteers are passionate about helping the communities they live in and are out and about playing a valuable role at many local events.”
