🎄 Day 2 of our 12 Days of Christmas Crime Prevention! 🎄

Avoid leaving gifts or shopping bags visible in your car – even for a short time.

Thieves often scan parked cars for valuables, and brightly wrapped gifts or branded shopping bags are an easy target. 

It only takes seconds for a criminal to break in and steal your items, leaving you with a ruined festive season.

✅ Store gifts and shopping bags in the boot – never on seats or in plain view.
✅ Remove items as soon as you get home – don’t leave them overnight.
✅ Lock your car and check windows every time you leave it.

Remember: Opportunistic thieves are looking for quick wins. By keeping your car clear and secure, you reduce the risk of becoming a victim.
