CCTV Community Project

MCNW has teamed up with Crime Watch SA to drive this CCTV Community project.

8x Alarm Monitoring = 1x 24/7 CCTV in your street

Crime Watch SA will provide a Monitored CCTV camera for each street with 8 new alarm monitoring sign ups.

How do I sign up for this CCTV initiative?

Sign up with MCNW here.
Remember to specify in the form that you would like to be part of the CCTV initiative (question 19).
MCNW will then arrange a fingerprint session for you and will invite you to the next training
MCNW will hand over your contact details to CW SA
CW SA will arrange a visit to your premises to inspect your current alarm setup
CW SA will provide you with a detailed quote and required documentation

So who is involved in the CCTV Community Project in Milnerton Central?

This will be Crime Watch SA (blue and white cars)! Which means that you would sign-up with Crime Watch SA to do your alarm monitoring services (and response, if you wish to).

I want a camera in my road, but I’m fiercely loyal to Milnerton Crime Watch Trust (MCWT)?

In the event of an emergency, Milnerton Crimewatch Trust would still be dispatched (if you are a signed-up member of MCWT). Crime Watch SA are offering to monitor your alarm.

If Milnerton Crime Watch Trust (MCWT) are going to respond – why do Crime Watch SA (CWSA) need all this information from me?

In the event of an alarm activation, the control room must be able to give the responder the most accurate information in order to keep him and your property safe.

What is the difference between Milnerton Crime Watch Trust and Crime Watch SA?

We often get asked what the difference is between these two armed response companies:

Milnerton Crime Watch Trust

Community "owned" and run Safety & Security initiative operating in Milnerton Central since 1998. They provide a proactive response service through 24/7 patrols. They do not offer monitoring services, but have partnered with several monitoring providers. Their black and yellow cars are a Milnerton institution.

Crime Watch South Africa

Crime Watch SA is a proactive armed response company operating in Sunset Beach, Milnerton Ridge, Milnerton Central, Royal Ascot, Woodbridge Island, Montague Gardens, Tijgerhof, Summer Greens, Phoenix, Rugby, Brooklyn and parts of Paarden Eiland. They provide a variety of security services. Their white and blue cars can be seen out on patrol in Milnerton Central.

What board can be put up on my property, when I join the NW and Crime Watch?

The board, is a joint partnership one, depicting that your property is being monitored by both the NW and Crime Watch.

The cost is R 150.00 of which R 30.00 goes towards buying further CCTV cameras for the community

If I have a CCTV camera in my street or on my property – are there CCTV signboards available?

Yes, they are also branded Crime Watch and the NW, to reflect that they are being monitored by both parties. They cost R150.00 of which R 30.00 goes towards purchasing additional CCTV cameras
