Police Advice 'WIDE'
Crime prevention - please remember, don't leave your home in darkness if you are going out, leave a light on or use a light switch timer. Ensure your garden is secure, lock your gates and sheds. You can put alarms on your out building/sheds/garages and they are very inexpensive.
Crime prevention – Remember the WIDE principle:
W – Window locks on every window
I Interior lights left on a timer when you are away
D Double or dead bolts fitted on doors
E Exterior lights on a sensor.
Consider installing CCTV to provide formal surveillance to the most vulnerable areas of the property.
If you have any information call Crime Stoppers 0800 555 111 or Kent Police on 101.
