Due to recent Theft’s from Motor Vehicles across Taunton, we would like to take the opportunity to remind everyone of some basic steps of ensuring you secure your personal belongings.

Don’t leave bag’s, coat’s or change on display.
Leaving the Glove box open with nothing inside, will show there is nothing of value.
If you can’t carry everything, lock it in the boot.
Lock doors and close windows, even for a short period, but please not with pet's inside on warm days.

Often the repairs to broken car windows are more than the value of stolen items.

Reporting a crime, call 101 or go to www.avonandsomerset.police.co.uk

In an emergency call 999

In light of recent activity and as we approach the summer months, the temptation for many of us to purchase new garden machinery is great, unfortunately for the opportunist burglar this can be greater and can have expensive consequences. Every time you cut your grass you are advertising what you have in your shed ! Please take some basic steps to ensure you protect your belongings. Fit a quality padlock, a Solar Powered Security light (No wiring required), any larger expensive items can be chained together inside the shed. These simple steps can be enough to deter a criminal and protect your possessions and cost very little to purchase, far less than a new Lawn Mower, and the stress of having to report a crime. If you require more information then please follow us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/ASPTaunton

Protect your property, always ensure doors and windows are locked when you are not home. High fences in the rear garden, low at the front. Security Lights, (Even Solar powered), an alarm system. These are some steps you can take that would help to prevent you becoming a target, but should the worst happen, call 999.
