Best Practice Advice
- Keep doors and windows locked when your home and outbuildings are unoccupied
- Use light timers to deter burglars
- DO NOT LEAVE KEYS TO A VEHICLE JUST INSIDE THE DOOR IN EASY REACH AND ACCESS TO CRIMINALS
- Consider installing gravel driveways, outside sensor lighting, CCTV, alarms, and planting such as Pyracantha, which is fast growing and can provide ideal hedging.
- Ensure that heating oil tanks are not obviously visible and keep them secure with a padlock. Disguise tanks with fencing or hedgerow.
- Do not leave any valuables such as hand bags or IT technology in vehicles particularly when visiting isolated car parks. Do not leave tools overnight in vans and try to park them so that the doors aren’t easily accessible.
- Remain vigilant at all times and if you see anything suspicious report it to Police immediately.
- Be prepared. Mark your valuables with a UV pen and register them with www.immobilise.com
- Additional home crime prevention advice is available on the Home Office website: www.securedbydesign.com
Rural crime is an issue for large areas of the country, but it tends to go unreported. It can impact on insurance premiums, food prices and damage local communities.
It can be hard to know whether something is a crime and whether to contact the police or another charity or organisation.
