Leytonstone Safer Neighbourhood Police Team would like to remind the public to remain vigilant during the summer months and protect their homes and vehicles from opportunistic criminals. 

Follow our key prevention advice to help keep your home secure.

Ensure doors and windows are securely locked, even when at home

Keep gardens clear – so that would-be criminals are visible from the street and cannot easily hide

Keep ground-floor windows closed and locked overnight. Do not leave them ajar

Keep valuables, electronic devices, and keys out of sight from doors and windows

Secure garages and garden sheds and don’t leave tools out that could assist a break-in

Consider planting thorny shrubs to create an effective natural deterrent
