FESTIVE CRIME PREVENTION TIPS

#CrimePrevention | As the festive season approaches, we all want to enjoy the festivities without any unwanted surprises. 🎅✨

Here are some simple tips to keep you, your home, and your belongings safe:

🎄 Lock Up Tight – Whether you’re popping out for last-minute shopping or visiting family, always lock doors and windows.
🎄 Hide the Gifts – Don’t leave presents in plain sight. Keep them away from windows to avoid tempting opportunistic thieves.
🎄 Light It Up – Use timers on lights if you’re out in the evening. A well-lit home looks occupied and deters burglars.
🎄 Stay Alert Online – Be cautious when sharing plans on social media. Advertising that you’re away can make you a target.
🎄 Secure Your Car – Don’t leave shopping bags or valuables visible in your vehicle. Take them inside as soon as possible.

Let’s make this Christmas merry and safe for everyone! If you see anything suspicious, report it to us straight away.
