It only takes a couple of minutes to register, all you need is your bikes make, model,

of money therefore should be insured correctly.

Preventing doorstep crime

Doorstep crime can include rogue traders, offering home improvement or gardening services, or bogus callers who claim to be the council, police, health carers or energy companies. If in doubt - keep them out.

Rogue traders may:
* Say they are in the area and have spotted a problem with your home or garden.
* Claim to have materials left over from another job, like paving or tarmac.
* Try to pressurise you to buy goods or sign up for services on the spot.
* Offer to carry out work cheaply, but charge an extortionate price after it has been completed.
* Offer to drive you to a bank so you can withdraw money to pay them.
* Provide false names, addresses or telephone numbers.
* A pedlar is someone who calls at your door to sell items that they have on offer. This can often include cleaning or household goods.
* By law, they are required to carry a pedlar’s certificate, which are issued by the police force in the area where they live.

Bogus callers may:
* Claim to be working for the council, water, gas or electric company. They could also say they are a nurse, doctor or from the police.
* Say they need to come into your home, or try to get you to go outside.
* Try to distract you so they can steal your money.
* Can be male, female or even children.

Tips to keep you safe
* Check the identity of any caller. Confirm who they are by calling the company they work for using number from the telephone directory or a bill.
* Ask a neighbour to come around to check them before you open the door.
* Tell them to come back at a time when someone will be at home with you.
* Keep doors and windows locked and use the door chain every time you answer the door.

Make your home a difficult target.

Inside your home

Make it difficult for your valuables to be taken.
Check who’s at the door and don’t open it if you feel anxious.
Leave some lights on or consider using plug timers if it will be dark before you get home.
Store keys, including your car keys, out of sight and away from the front door area.
Hide wallets, identity cards, passports and cash.
Mark or etch your property with your postcode, house, flat number or the first three letters of your house name.
Take photographs of your valuable items such as jewellery.

Outside your home

Install good outside lighting.
Scale back hedges or fences that prevent people seeing your home.
Lock doors and windows every time you leave the house, even when you are in the garden.
Cancel milk or other deliveries if you are planning on being away from home.
Ask a neighbour, friend or relative to keep an eye on your property if you are going away.
Keep ladders and gardening tools locked away to prevent them being used to gain entry to your home.
Secure bikes by locking them to an immoveable object inside a locked shed or garage.
Install a burglar alarm that can be seen on the outside of your property.

On your street

Be a good neighbour and check on your neighbours’ properties if they are away.
Remove any letters or deliveries from the letterbox or doorway.
Clear snow to your neighbours’ doors, or walk on their paths if they are away - footprints will make the house appear occupied.
Burglars look for the best house to target, so report anyone acting suspiciously.
Consider setting up or joining a
Neighbourhood Watch scheme.

🚔VEHICLE SEIZED AND STOP SEARCH CONDUCTED IN ECKINGTON🚔

Yesterday, PC Hempsey was out on patrol in the Eckington area when his eagle eye spotted a vehicle he had recent intelligence about being driven with no insurance.

After speaking with the driver and carrying out the necessary checks, it was confirmed that the driver was uninsured resulting in the vehicle being seized under Section 165 of the Road Traffic Act.
PC Hempsey also had reasonable grounds to suspect the presence of controlled drugs and, as a result, conducted a search of both the driver and the vehicle under Section 23 Misuse of Drugs Act.

We will continue to conduct high-visibility patrols throughout the area, using intelligence-led policing to identify and deal with those involved in criminal and anti-social behaviour.
