From earlier articles you will see the huge and valued support that the VISAV team have been giving a Basford, Nottingham charity, Mesopotamia. The VISAV owners and Directors visited Mesopotamia last Saturday to help with the packing and wrapping of surprise gifts for local children who, otherwise, would not have a gift to open on Christmas Day. The VISAV team will then help the Mesopotamia team to deliver the presents on Wednesday, along with the families’ food parcels that VISAV have financially contributed towards.

We are here to accept food donations or household items, and here for people to access food and household items they require. We are a non profit organization and rely upon your donations and good will!"

Amazon Ring donated several of their video doorbells to VISAV to enable us to help vulnerable residents in our community. Recently we passed three of these to local PCSO Nathan Duffus who distributed the first during a burglary revisit and the following two following an incident on Waldeck Road.

PCSO Duffus told us about one of the recipients:

"One of the resident has mentioned the following on the device - ‘I was shook up after my property was broken into as I felt like my personal space was invaded. This left me overthinking on why I was a target for the first time. Then I had a visit from the local officer, which enabled me to feel reassured and a lot more relaxed about the incident. As it was explained, these things can be a bad luck of the draw for opportunist on the prowl.
