Dear Resident,

Added to the below is a very useful link to the Police crime prevention handbook which offers great advice to secure your property, and belongings.

Remember to keep your own property secure to reduce the opportunity for thieves, remember WIDEN.  You can watch a short vide on WIDEN here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKN8337RDIY

·  WINDOWS: Keep your windows closed and locked.

·  INTERIOR: Put your interior lights on a timer or smart bulb.

·  DOORS: Double or deadlock your doors.

·  EXTERIOR: Put your exterior lights on a sensor (preferably dusk to dawn).

·  NEIGHBOURS: Keep an eye out for neighbours.

To assist us in identifying stolen property please consider property marking high value items using Forensic Marking or UV pens.  You are also advised to register property at www.immobilise.com which is a free on-line property register used by police forces nationwide to reunite stolen goods to their owners. All you have to do is register on-line and then upload properties electrical items serial numbers.

If you have a burglar alarm ensure it is set and working.

Please also find attached the Police Crime Prevention Handbook which covers a broad range of crime prevention advice.
