Simple Steps to Secure Your Home

With summer holidays in full swing, now is a great time to double-check your home security. Opportunist burglars often target homes that appear empty or insecure.

✅ Always lock windows and doors, even when you're home.
✅ Use timer switches on lights if you're away overnight.
✅ Consider upgrading locks to anti-snap and installing a doorbell camera or alarm.
✅ Don’t leave keys in reach of letterboxes or windows.

If you see something suspicious in your area, report it via 101 or online at northyorkshire.police.uk.
