People in the Watton area are being encouraged to work together to help make their community safer.

Norfolk Constabulary is urging people to take part in the Home Watch scheme that deters crime by getting neighbours to look out for each other.

Watton Safer Neighbourhood Team PCSO, Joe Jermy, said: 'We are encouraging local people to sign up to Home Watch and increase neighbourliness.'

'The scheme aims to improve links with residents and the police so we can work together to reduce crime and reassure members of the wider community.'
