This year, for the first time, Ourwatch<\/strong><\/a> (the national Neighbourhood Watch organisation) is hosting their Neighbourhood Watch Conference<\/strong> online. (usually it\u2019s a face-to-face event in London or Manchester).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event is via Zoom on Wed 24th September 2025 from 10am-2pm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

VANEL<\/strong><\/a> oversee Neighbourhood Watch for North East Lincolnshire, and will be \u2018attending\u2019 the conference ourselves and we encourage anyone in North East Lincolnshire connected to Neighbourhood Watch to connect and join the conference<\/strong> too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Details about the conference are online here in the September copy of the Ourwatch newsletter<\/a>. And registration for the event is here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But VANEL recognise that some Neighbourhood Watch Coordinators or volunteers locally will find it more difficult to Zoom in to a conference like this.  So, on the 24th, VANEL will be joining the Conference via our big video screen and we\u2019re inviting you to join us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll be online 10am-2pm for the Conference and you\u2019re welcome to join us at 82 Grimsby Road for the whole conference or for one or more of the four hour long sessions (see below).  There will be refreshments and a nibble for those joining us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So if you\u2019re connected to a Neighbourhood Watch Group in NEL and would like to join VANEL online from our offices then please let us know in advance. Contact liz@vanel.org.u<\/a>k who is taking \u2018bookings\u2019 or karl@vanel.org.uk<\/a> if you have questions.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Otherwise please register yourself now with Ourwatch direct<\/a> to join via Zoom from the comfort of your own computer!<\/p>\n\n\n
