Halloween

Halloween can be a scary time for people who do not like surprises or callers at the door.

Here is our advice for elderly or vulnerable residents:

• If you do receive an unexpected caller at the door do not feel pressured to answer it

• If you are expecting a delivery or visit from a professional always ask for ID or confirmation of their work place.

• If you have a door chain make sure it is securely fastened at all times and lock your porch door

• Be sure to use your spy hole viewer if you have one. If you have one, talk through your wireless video doorbell
