Help to make your community safer, and deter criminals by securing your property, by reporting suspicious activity promptly to police, and by demonstrating that you are switched on to crime prevention.
Holidays? - Want Peace of Mind while you’re Away?
Follow this good advice on making your home more secure:
Make your home look like it’s occupied. Use automatic timer switches to turn lights on when it gets dark.
Cancel milk and newspaper deliveries.
Avoid discussing holiday plans where strangers may hear details of your absence from home.
Tidy the garden before you go and trim back any plants that obstruct the view to your house.
Remove valuable items from view, place documents and valuables in a safe, if you have one.
Ask neighbours to keep an eye on your property. Have them remove your post and leave a contact number for them in the case of emergency.
Is there a Neighbourhood Watch scheme in the area? Local Police will tell you if there is one.
Do not put your home address on your luggage when you are travelling to your holiday destination.
Remember to lock all outside doors and windows, and if you have a burglar alarm, make sure it is set.
Park your car tight to the garage door to prevent forced access.
Finally, just before you leave, spend a couple of minutes checking that you’ve done all you can to secure your property, so you can leave with peace of mind!
