Bluff CPF - Neighbourhood Watch

Dunville Road Neighbourhood Watch

The Dunville Road Neighbourhood Watch (DRNW) is currently the only neighbourhood watch on the Bluff. It was founded in 2002 and has been very instrumental in keeping crime down to reasonable levels in the area around Dunville Road.

The DRNW works closely with the SAPS in Sector 2 of the Bluff Sector Policing.

See this newspaper article about the DRNW.

Meetings are held at the corner of Bluff and Top Rds and are combined with the Sector 2 meeting. Watch this space for details of the next meeting. We urge all members and interested residents to attend. For more information, contact Koos Swanepoel at 031-467-2576.

Currently more information can be found at the DRNW web-site, but this is being moved to its new location right here.
