Bulletin 11   May 11th – May 24th 2023


  Dear Residents

 

 The school half term week is about to begin and some of you may be planning to spend the week  away from home.

 

 Please be aware that criminals do try and target houses they believe to be empty. Take all  necessary precautions before you go. Tell your neighbours of your intentions and ask them to keep an eye out for anyone suspicious around your property.

 

 Timer switches for lights are a very useful tool. If you have nearby relatives or really trust your  neighbours then leave house keys with them and ask them to attend your house on occasion to  check if all is ok and to move mail etc., as it gives the impression that the house is being used.

 

 All these safeguards can also be used if you are taking an extended holiday in the summer months  to come.

 

 Inspector Lyndsey Whatley

 Tandridge Safer Neighbourhood Inspector
