Dear Resident,

We’re issuing a warning ahead of the bank holiday weekend after a spike in burglaries last year.

There were more burglaries on the week of the late May bank holiday than at any other time in 2024.

Although some homes were broken into, many thieves acted as opportunists, stealing items when windows were left open or doors unlocked.

We’re asking residents to remain extra vigilant and ensure their property is secure at all times.

For more information and crime prevention advice visit our website.

Kind regards,

Tim Goddard
Communications officer
