Experiencing a crime or home invasion can be a distressing experience and can leave us feeling unsafe and unsure what to do now to reduce future risk.

Neighbourhood Watch NT are committed to creating safer, better connected and more inclusive Territory communities and have put together this e-resource package to provide you with an overview of who we are, what we do and how we can help.

Please take some time to explore our crime prevention and community connection resources and initiatives and lets work together to have you feeling safer and more secure in your home and in the community.
