A GROUP of residents in Padiham have joined together to form a new Neighbourhood Watch.
Up to 30 residents from Printers Fold, High Close and Low Bank areas of Padiham have set up the project, which will promote crime prevention, reduce undue fear of crime and improve communication between the residents and the police.
Neighbourhood watch signs have been put up in the area and information packs, stickers and property marking kits have been handed out to those involved in a bid to address crime.
