Sandra and Ray this morning in Seven Sisters Road celebrating their 10^th year community Speed watching In Willingdon, after which the details of eleven speeding vehicles were uploaded to Sussex Police to be dealt with by them......Average speed 40mph in a 30mph zone.

‍

Willingdon Neighbourhood Watch was formed 40 years ago this month by Joan Barras and Police Crime prevention officer Dave Smith , unfortunately neither Dave or Joan are with us today. WNW was one of the very first watches formed of the now 170,000 Neighbourhood watches in the UK making it the largest voluntary movement in this country, and all of us at WNW are proud to carry on their legacy for the benefit of all Willingdon residents.

We would also like to thank “Fountain Digital” of Eastbourne the designers and sponsors of this amazing website for all they have done for WNW...Thank you all.

Ray Ingram,

Chairman WNW
