- late night takeaways
- restaurants, and
- taxis
Members benefit from:
- town’s security radio network with handsets
- incident reporting
- photograph albums of persistent offenders
- banning notices, and
- the scheme is administered by a full time co-ordinator
Nightwatch Objectives
to monitor and reduce the incidence of crime

- to make Eastbourne a safer place to work, live and visit
