Beenham has a Neighbourhood Watch scheme in operation with co-ordinators spread throughout the parish, but more co-ordinators are always welcome. The success of the scheme depends upon everyone – not just co-ordinators – being aware and concerned. Please report anything suspicious to the Police or to the local co-ordinator, David Bamberger, Tel: 971 2818. E-mail david@rentaloptions.co.uk

The Neighbourhood Action Group is a group of local parish councils – Theale, Bradfield, Englefield and Beenham – representatives of which meet regularly with the local police, social services and other interested parties to identify problem areas, such as speeding, vandalism and antisocial behaviour, and agree how to address them. The Group holds two or three public meetings every year in the Community Room at which the views of residents are sought.
