🌞 Warmer Weather – Protect Your Property

With warmer weather comes more time spent outdoors, but it can also bring an increase in opportunistic crime. Please take a few simple steps to keep your home and belongings safe:

🔒 Lock sheds and garages – even if you’re only popping inside for a moment

🚲 Secure bikes with a good‑quality lock and store them out of sight where possible

🪟 Close and lock windows, especially at the rear of properties

🚪 Check rear and patio doors are locked and in good working order

👀 Stay vigilant and report anything suspicious

A few small actions can make a big difference in preventing theft.

If you see suspicious activity, report it using 101 or 999 in an emergency.
