Neighbourhood watchNeighbourhood watch is a system of joint supervision

and helping of neighbourhood households, which helps neighbourhood people jointly protect themselves and their

property and reduce fear of crime. Basis of neighbor watch is close ties and exchange of information between neighbourhood dwellers, local police and representatives

of local municipality.

Neighbourhood watch output is:- increased sense of security of dwellers at homes and

close vicinity to homes; - attentive attitude towards surrounding;

- strong sense of unity and ownership in neighbourhood;- cleaner and more pleasant environment.

Physical integrity, danger of violence

When you are in some club, pub or just walking on streets you never can’t be sure that you are protected and you won’t fall a victim to depredation. You never can’t be sure in physical integrity, and we think it’s everywhere like that.

Dangers in Valga– Assault and battery– Calumny– Depredation– Descent on– Mugging– Violent crime

StatisticsComparing Valga with other Estonian

cities we can say that raping and other sexual harassing is smaller in numbers.

Alcohol

Alcohol is very serious problem in our town. Many young people (from age 13) are drinking alcohol. They often drink alcohol in public places. We have had many detentions because drunken people are disturbing other’s peace.

Reasons, why young people can drink alcohol:– Many adults are buying alcohol for young people (close

acquaintances and strange or drunken people also)– Many adults are selling alcohol to young people without asking ID

(they usually need bigger profit)– Young people are using fake ID’s.

LimitsAge limits: people in age 18-21 can buy weak alcohol (beer, cider, wine); over 21 years old persons can buy

stronger alcohol (vodka, whiskey)Alcohol selling ban: from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m.

Checkings: in shops, clubs, pubs, bars and restaurants

People who had use drugs are going to steal and they are also beating others. A lot of venereal diseases are distributed by drug addicts.

Road safety

Our town is small and traffic is quite easy. We don’t have many car faxes and we have only one traffic light in our town.

We have many drink-drivers and it’s quite big problem for us because every year they cause over 300 accidents in Estonia.

There are a lot of accidents in Valga because we have many young drivers. Older people are driving more carefully and they are friendlier and more indulgent.
