You're being watched: First time for CCTV in residential areas

YOU’RE BEING WATCHED

BIG Brother is watching you if you live in Rawthorpe, Dalton or Hillhouse.

Security cameras have been introduced to parts of those districts to make residents feel safer.

Five security cameras, which can be moved to focus on potential hotspots, have been installed.

They will be managed by the local neighbourhood policing teams.

The scheme is part of a plan to encourage people to report crime and anti-social behaviour to the police and other agencies.

The action is being led and paid for by Kirklees Neighbourhood Management, which works with agencies in priority areas to tackle local issues.
