Helping you celebrate Halloween safely.

For trick or treater's

Travel in groups for safety - Under 16's should always be accompanied by an adult.

Respect privacy - Only knock at homes displaying decorations, which shows that they are participating.

DO NOT engage in anti-social pranks like throwing eggs or flour, as this can be upsetting and is considered criminal damage.

Signal participation by leaving lights on and decorations up.

Deter visitors by putting up a “No trick or treat thank you” sign.

Call the police immediately on the night, if you are concerned about an individuals safety, anti-social behaviour or other criminal activity.
