Darker nights are fast approaching - Leave a light on.

Protect your home and leave a light on.

Here are just a few simple steps to protect your home from a burglar:

-Close and lock all your doors and windows, even if you are only going out for a few minutes.

-Make sure that any valuables are out of sight.

-Keep handbags away from the letterbox or cat flaps and hide all keys including car keys, as a thief could hook keys or valuables through even a small opening. 

-Set a burglar alarm

-If you are planning on being out for the day, then it is advisable to use a timer device to automatically turn lights and a radio or TV on at night.

-Also consider CCTV, video doorbells and lighting around your home.
