About this service
Knowing your neighbours is such an easy and cost effective form of crime prevention, and yet getting to know our neighbours is not always easy. In an effort to bring neighbours together we introduced Movie Nights in the Park. Ten years ago the Collingwood Community Policing Centre hosted our first Movie Night in the Park in response to crime and public disorder occurring in a particular neighbourhood. We started with an 84 inch movie screen and a nice little sound system. As a result of meeting at the movie, the neighbours:
- Started talking to one another about their concerns in the neighbourhood
- Started working together to make their neighbourhood safer
- Joined the Adopt-A-Block program
- Reported criminal activity when they see it
- Called the city when they see street lights burnt out, parks overgrown, or graffitti on public spaces
And, just as important, they do not feel alone; they have discovered their neighbours.
