Sadly, crime rates can increase over the Christmas period. There are some simple things you can do to protect your property and belongings ...
👉 Keep keys, cash and expensive items out of sight👉 Use a timer switch on lights to make your home look occupied, when you're away
👉 Keep gates locked a boundaries secure
👉 Keep hedges cut for better surveillance
👉 Close and secure all doors and windows when you leave home
👉 Lock away bikes, tools, garden equipment, etc. These can either be stolen or used to assist break-in
👉 Consider installing an alarm system
👉 Mark valuable property and keep an inventory of valuables, along with photos
👉 Consider appropriate insurance
SECOND-HAND GOODS
👉 DON'T be tempted by cheap deals. If an offer looks too good to be true it probably is! Only buy goods from a source that you know is genuine.
👉 Handling or trading in stolen goods is a crime. If caught, you could receive a fine of up to £5,000 or up to 14 years in prison.
