⏰ Clocks Go Back This Weekend - Stay Safe, Stay Seen! 🌙🚶‍♂️🚴‍♀️

As the clocks go back and darker evenings arrive, Buxton Town Safer Neighbourhood Team would like to remind everyone to take a few simple steps to stay safe when out and about.

Whether you're walking the dog, cycling to work, running, or simply heading into town, being visible to other road users is more important than ever.

✅ Wear bright or reflective clothing where possible
✅ Carry a torch or use your phone's light when walking in poorly lit areas
✅ Ensure bicycles have working lights and reflectors fitted
✅ Cross roads at designated crossing points and take extra care around traffic
✅ Keep mobile phones and valuables out of sight where possible

Drivers are also reminded to be extra vigilant for pedestrians, cyclists, and other vulnerable road users during the darker mornings and evenings.

Let's work together to keep our community safe this autumn and winter.

If you see anything suspicious or have concerns in your area, please report it via Derbyshire Constabulary's website or by calling 101. In an emergency, always call 999.
