Home Security Reminder

Dear Residents,

We’d like to remind everyone of the importance of keeping your home secure. Recently, we’ve seen opportunities being created for offenders due to properties being left unlocked or windows left open. Taking a few simple steps can significantly reduce the risk of becoming a victim of burglary.

Top Tips for Keeping Your Home Secure

🔒 Always lock doors and windows – even when you’re at home or just in the garden.
💡 Use timer switches to make your home look lived-in when you’re out.
📦 Keep valuables out of sight, and avoid leaving keys near doors or windows.
🔑 Secure sheds and outbuildings, which often contain tools that could be used to access your home.
🎥 Consider installing CCTV, doorbell cameras or alarms, which act as strong deterrents.
👀 Report anything suspicious immediately—your information may help prevent crime.

Why It Matters

Opportunistic burglars often look for the easiest target. A locked door, a lit home, or a visible camera can be enough to make them move on. Working together and staying alert helps keep our neighbourhood safer for everyone.
