🚨 Community Safety Alert – Burglary Prevention 🚨

Greater Manchester Police would like to make residents in the Royton area aware of recent burglary incidents reported locally.

We are encouraging everyone to remain vigilant and take a few simple steps to help protect their homes and property.

Safety Tips to Reduce the Risk of Burglary:

🏠 Always lock doors and windows, even when at home.

🔑 Keep keys, wallets and valuable items out of sight and away from doors and windows.

💡 Use timer switches on lights when away from home to make your property appear occupied.

📹 Consider installing CCTV, video doorbells or security lighting.

🌳 Keep hedges and fences maintained to remove hiding places around your property.

📦 Avoid leaving deliveries or valuable items visible from outside.

🤝 Look out for neighbours, especially elderly or vulnerable residents, and report any suspicious activity.

🚗 Ensure vehicles are locked and remove valuables from sight.
