Join Forest Watch now: Your Forest needs you
Help Stamp out crime in your local forests and countryside.
Following a successful 12 month pilot scheme in the Neath & Port Talbot area, Forestry Commission Wales and South Wales Police are rolling out the scheme into other areas of South Wales. Since the scheme came into force in Neath & Port Talbot Forest Watch members have provided the Forestry Commission and police with important information.
Forest Watch gives its members and local communities the opportunity to play a key role in reducing crime in our forests and countryside in this successful partnership initiative. Members will be issued with a Forest Watch Pack and will have the opportunity to attend local meetings.
There is a dedicated phone number and e-mail address for members and the public to report information to (in confidence) and a dedicated police officer, PC Andrew Scourfield, Forest Crime Officer who co-ordinates Forest Watch and is based with the Forestry Commission at Resolven, Neath.
If you are fed up with criminal and anti-social activity in your forests and countryside then why not play a key role in reducing it and join ‘Forest Watch’ today.
