Let's keep our homes safe this winter

🏠 Filey Residents – Let’s Keep Our Homes Safe This Winter 🌙

As the nights draw in, it’s a good time to think about home security. North Yorkshire Police remind us that burglars often look for easy opportunities – but a few simple steps can make a big difference:

🔒 Lock doors & windows, even when you're home
💡 Use timer switches to make it look like someone’s in
🚪 Secure sheds & garages – tools can be used to break in
🌳 Trim bushes near windows to remove hiding spots
🎥 Consider visible alarms or CCTV – even dummy units help
👀 Stay alert and report anything suspicious

📍 In Filey, we’re lucky to have a strong community. Let’s look out for each other and keep our neighbourhood safe.

📞 Report non-emergencies via 101 or online at northyorkshire.police.uk
🚨 Always call 999 in an emergency
