Please remember as the weather gets warmer to ensure that all of your properties are secure, I know how tempting it can be to leave windows open, please ensure that ground floor windows and doors are locked and secured, if upper windows are left open try to remove things like wheelie bins or other items that can be used to climb and gain access to your homes / properties. Please remember to check your car is locked every time before you walk away, just a simple pull of the car handle can save a lot of heart ache, stress and loss in the long run.
