The domestic watch programme is part of the Making A Difference campaign by Penny Steyn.
Bonnie Friedman of Sun Valley runs the programme and has a regular group of domestic workers that attend the campaign.
Steyn said the campaign was a real force to be reckoned with and crime had radically reduced in areas where the programme was run and well-attended. Any of Midrand’s domestics workers are welcomed to the Sun Valley programme.
The meeting will be held at La Fiorentina restaurant on the corner of Bridle Pass Road and Champion Road at 11am on 20 March.
Steyn said, the biggest problem the police have is a lack of information. The programme takes domestics through the process of reporting crime and what to do in a crime situation.
At the Sun Valley domestic watch meeting last month, Captain Lionel Chetty, Captain Martin Hulk and Constable Thari Maelane attended the meeting to issue safety tips to the domestic workers.
