Neighbourhood Team
Christmas is now just around the corner and I hope you are all enjoying the ongoing festivities. It is important to remember that as a community we are very diverse, with lots of different traditions and beliefs. These traditions can be as diverse as the culture and religious practices of different countries around the world.
Christmas is a busy time of year for everyone, including criminals. We know, however, that a high percentage of crime is opportunistic, and can be prevented by taking some simple precautionary measures. Don’t let criminals enjoy Christmas at your expense.
Top tips for a crime-free Christmas When shopping: • Never leave your bags unattended.
• Don’t leave presents in full view on the back seat of your car when out shopping. These can be tempting to thieves. Lock them away out of sight in the boot.
• Always lock your car and make sure windows are closed, even if you’re away from your vehicle for just a few minutes. Use a steering lock if possible.
• Don’t carry large amounts of cash on you when you go out. Be alert, and make sure your purse or wallet is secure and hidden from view.
• Don’t keep your chequebook and card together. Keep your PIN confi dential and don’t write it down.
When at home:
• Keep presents out of sight. Large piles of gift wrapped goodies under the tree that are visible through a door/window are tempting to thieves.
• Don’t leave empty boxes on display outside. Discarded packaging advertises all the new goods you have indoors.
• Don’t leave keys/handbags lying around on display.
• Make it look like someone is at home when you’re going out for the evening. Leave lights on and close the curtains. If you have a burglar alarm, set it.
• Check that your home insurance adequately covers you for the value of goods in your home.
