Leaving your home these holidays?
With Christmas and a summer break ahead, make sure your home and property is secure from burglars.
Taking some simple steps can help deter burglars from your home.
Lock your doors and windows, keep valuables out of sight, and record the serial numbers of expensive electronic items and photograph these and other valuables.
Install an alarm system and get sensor lights fitted. Also keep garden sheds and garages locked when not in use, and keep hedges or plants around doors and windows well-trimmed - don’t give the burglar a place to hide.
