Where are WhatsApp groups active

Through the WhatsApp Neighbourhood Watch website, you can check whether a WhatsApp group is already active in your neighbourhood. If no WhatsApp group is active yet, you may want to take the initiative to start one. The document WhatsApp group (PDF, 914.03 KB) contains all the information. For all technical questions, please refer to the WhatsApp website.

WhatsApp neighbourhood watch signs

In certain neighbourhoods, WhatsApp neighbourhood watch signs have been put up in public areas. Do you want this too? If so, contact the neighbourhood panel so that they can compile these requests. You can submit your application online.

The request must meet the following conditions:

  • The request is submitted for the entire neighbourhood.
  • A map of the neighbourhood showing the signs is included in the request.
  • The signs at the district’s approach roads are ready.
  • If the WhatsApp neighbourhood watch signs are paid for by you (the costs are € 70 per sign, includes placing).

Ordering and placing the WhatsApp signs

If you meet the conditions, the City of Leeuwarden will contact you when the signs will be placed. The city will then send you an invoice with the outstanding amount, based on the number of signs you ordered.
