Burglary prevention kits

Broxbourne residents can pick up a free burglary prevention kit from Broxbourne Council reception in Cheshunt and the Council's One Stop Shops in Waltham Cross, Cheshunt and Hoddesdon.  These packs will help residents safeguard their homes from burglars and thereby, the Council hopes, reduce their fear of crime.

 

The packs are supplied by Broxbourne's Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnership, comprising Broxbourne Council, the County Council, the police and other agencies.  Funding for these packs is provided by the Home Office.   

 

Each pack contains two types of marker pen, one permanent black ink and one ultra-violet, which are used to mark property, tamper-proof labels, and a window sticker.  There are also various crime prevention leaflets in the pack, including 'Welcome to Neighbourhood Watch', 'Bogus Caller' and 'Victim Support'.
