Security Tip of the Week

Tips to deter burglars

neighbourhood watch sign
To deter burglars, mark your valuables with a police-approved forensic solution visible under UV light, and label them with your postcode or address. This makes stolen items easier to trace and harder to sell. Use stickers to warn criminals your property is marked. Register items for free on databases like Immobilise and Bike Register, and record details such as serial numbers and photos. Finally, join your local Neighbourhood Watch to help create a community that looks out for suspicious activity.

Weekly Well-Being Reminder

Do something else at the same time…

Cook dinner together, go for a walk, build something with Lego. From my experience, both as a parent and as an emotion coach, children open up far more when they are focussed on doing something else.
