Keeping your Vehicle safe

Keeping your Vehicle safe

Dear residents

Did you know that many thefts from vehicles happen because valuables are left on display or vehicles are left unlocked?

Please take a few simple steps to help protect your property:

🔒 Always lock your vehicle, even if you are only leaving it for a short time. 

👀 Never leave valuables on display, including bags, mobile phones, wallets, laptops, sat navs, tools, or loose change. 

👜 Take belongings with you whenever possible or lock them away out of sight before you reach your destination. 

🚗 Double-check that all windows, doors, and the boot are secure before walking away. 

🏠 If possible, park in a well-lit area or on your driveway.

Thieves often target vehicles looking for easy opportunities. Removing valuables and ensuring your vehicle is locked can significantly reduce the risk of becoming a victim of crime.

If you see suspicious activity around vehicles in your area, please report it to West Mercia Police via our website or by calling 101. Always call 999 if a crime is in progress.

Kind regards
