Have a safe Halloween

Have a safe Halloween

Halloween is a fun time for families, friends and communities to come together, and we want everyone to enjoy it safely.

 If you're out trick-or-treating:

Stay with friends or family where possible.

Wear bright or reflective clothing so you can be seen.

Stick to well-lit routes and be aware of traffic when crossing roads.

Only visit homes that are clearly welcoming trick-or-treaters.

 For residents:

If you’d prefer not to receive trick-or-treaters, consider displaying a sign or leaving your porch light off.

Please be respectful of your neighbours and their property. 

Here are some examples of ASB that we want to know about:

Full guidance on ASB and the different types can be found here: Antisocial behaviour | West Mercia Police

Or you can find your local council here: Find your local council - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

Should you have any concerns about potential ASB, or are experiencing ASB where you live, please contact your local council or if necessary report it to us: Report antisocial behaviour | West Mercia Police

In an emergency, if you or your property are at risk, or a crime is in progress call 999.

If you aren’t comfortable contacting us directly, you can pass on information anonymously to the independent charity, Crimestoppers, by calling 0800 555 111 or by visiting their website: www.crimestoppers-uk.org

Thank you for your help. It is only by the police and the public working together that we can prevent and detect crime. 

Kind regards,

Bromsgrove Safer
