NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH
Co-ordinator Rodney Vincent (664990), other N.W. contacts Nigel Bell, Jim Spinks, Gordon McGee, or contact any member of the Stuntney Village Council.
We have strong links with the East Cambridgeshire Neighbourhood Watch Association, also Ely police. An e-mail communication chain has been set up for speedily passing on matters of local concern, incidents, suspicious callers etc. If you are not already included on the circulation but would like to be, please contact Rodney on 664990.
Whether or not you have e-mail, do pass on any unusual incidents, and try to get vehicle numbers or descriptions whenever possible. The message we need to get out to criminals is that Stuntney is not an easy touch.

The Stuntney Social Club acts as host to the computers and access is during club hours unless special arrangements are made. The Club is normally open from 8 pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
