The vehicles conduct regular, coordinated patrols in targeted areas to deter criminal activity. The SmartWatch team can keep an eye on your house if you are going to be away for travel or work for more than one night. They will look out for signs of damage to property, suspicious activities or incidents that occur. They will report any observations or findings to you and/or the police. You can book a holiday watch for a maximum of three months. Stay in touch and keep-up-to date with what is happening across all the Libraries by visiting rockinghamlibraries.com.au 48
