- Keep their front doors and windows closed and locked, and where possible, avoid leaving valuables and car keys on display
- Close windows and lock up their properties when they leave their homes
- When you are not using garages and sheds, make sure they are locked and secure, as would-be thieves will look for opportunities to steal tools, and may even use these tools to break into your home.
To report any incidents or suspicious behaviour, call 101, or 999 in an emergency.
