Two guest speakers will share crime and safety advice at the next Greater Dandenong Neighbourhood Watch public forum.
New Greater Dandenong Inspector Mark Langhorn and Greater Dandenong Council’s senior community development co-ordinator Sharon Sykes will present information and answer questions.
The forum will take place from 7.30pm to 9pm on Wednesday 15 March.
Greater Dandenong Neighbourhood Watch president Dawn Vernon said there’d be an afternoon session held prior to each forum this year, subject to strong attendance.
She said the 3pm event followed demand from those who were unable to attend the evening sessions.
The March forums and events on 17 May, 20 September and 15 November will be held in room three at the Paddy O’Donoghue Centre, 18-34 Buckley Street, Noble Park.
Call Ms Vernon on 0407 325 030 for more information.
