🎄 SMART ALERT: Keep Your Home Safe This Christmas! 🏠✨

The festive season is a time for joy – but it’s also a prime time for burglars. Don’t let crime steal your Christmas! Follow these essential tips to protect your home:

✅ Lock Up Tight
Always lock doors and windows, even when you’re at home.

✅ Leave a Light On
Use timer switches for lights to make your home look occupied.

✅ Hide Gifts & Valuables
Keep presents out of sight from windows and don’t leave packaging outside.

✅ Secure Your Keys
Never leave keys near doors or windows – burglars can “fish” them through letterboxes.

✅ Check Alarms & CCTV
Make sure your security systems are working and visible.

✅ Don’t Overshare Online
Avoid posting holiday plans or expensive gifts on social media.

✅ Neighbour Power
Ask a trusted neighbour to keep an eye on your property if you’re away.

🎅 Enjoy the festivities – stay alert, stay secure, and keep crime out of Christmas!
