Citywatch CCTV Northern Ireland currently monitor 138 cameras in Lisburn, Moira and Hillsborough in Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council area; Ballynahinch, Downpatrick and Newcastle in Newry Mourne & Down District Council area; and Dunmurry in Belfast City Council area.

Our main purposes are:

1. To combat crime and anti-social behaviour in the areas monitored.
2. To assist in preventing, thwarting and discouraging criminal and anti-social behaviour.
3. To provide a secure and safe environment for members of the public.
4. To promote public awareness of the nature of the problems existing in the area with a view to enhancing vigilance, prevention and ultimately the detection and apprehension of offenders
5. To promote maximum co-operation between the Police, the general public and retailers/businesses
6. To reduce loss and enhance profitability in the areas monitored
7. To attract visitors and commerce by creating a safe and attractive shopping and cultural environment

In 2016 we carried out a Retail Crime survey in the Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council area and in September 2017 the Retail Crime Strategy was launched along with Retail Crime Reduction guide and Self-Assessment Checklist for local businesses.

In late 2018, in partnership with Lisburn Policing & Community Safety Partnership and Lisburn PSNI Crime Prevention will run monthly clinics across the Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council area whereby local businesses and retailers will be encouraged to attend to receive important information on retail crime and advice.
