Community wardens

Community Wardens deal with low level crime and anti social behaviour working with partner agencies to make Kent a safer place to live.

Community Wardens work closely with Police, local authorities and other agencies and are a useful source of information.

They raise community awareness of problems such as bogus callers preying on vulnerable people in their homes. They also address environmental issues such as fly tipping, graffiti and vandalism.

They engage with the young, elderly and vulnerable in activities such as youth clubs and sporting events, coffee mornings and advice surgeries.

Community Wardens work flexible hours between 7.30am and 10pm, Monday to Sunday, enabling them to address local problems as and when they occur within the community in which they work.

Any member of the community can contact their warden by mobile phone.
