Msg from Jo Hall, Chair HNWA - Re Saxon Gdns NHW Scheme

Hello

My name is Jo Hall, and I am the Chairperson of the Huntingdonshire Neighbourhood Watch Association (HNWA). I have been a scheme coordinator for over 22 years and also serve as a Membership Support Administrator (MSA). Together with my colleague Janet Thomas, who is HNWA’s main MSA, we oversee more than 200 Neighbourhood Watch (NHW) schemes in the area. Our role is to assist NHW coordinators with any queries or support they may need.

Both of us have been granted access to the NHW National Database, which securely stores members’ contact information in compliance with the GDPR Act 2018. We ensure that all data is handled responsibly and with the utmost confidentiality.

As many of you know, Caroline Lindner will be moving out of the area and stepped down as Coordinator. She sent an Alert to let everyone know, and mentioned that I’ll be looking after the scheme as Area Coordinator for the time being, until we find a new Coordinator and Deputy.

If you need anything or have any questions or concerns, just get in touch. I’m here to help and will do my best to sort things out..  I can be contacted via jo.hall@hnwa.uk anytime.  You can also contact Janet Thomas via janet.thomas@hnwa.uk 

If anyone would like to step forward as Coordinator or Deputy Coordinator, I’d be delighted to hear from you. Please get in touch with me directly, and I can arrange a visit to talk you through what’s involved.
The scheme is active, well‑established, and requires only light ongoing maintenance, so it’s a great opportunity for someone who’d like to support their community without a heavy time commitment.

I look forward to hearing from you in due course and if you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Kind regards

Jo
