Good morning,
Halloween is creeping up on us once again and we want to remind people our officers will be working to discourage anti-social behaviour and ensure a safe Halloween for all. Halloween can be a great time of year for many, in particular children and young people, and a great opportunity to dress up and go trick or treating. However, for some people in our communities, Halloween behaviour can leave them feeling intimidated and distressed, or they simply don’t want to be visited by trick or treaters. As in previous years, to help those who do not want to be visited by trick or treaters, we’ve produced our annual poster for them to display in the window. If you would like one of these, please let me know. It is also important that people keep safe and below are some top tips to having a frightfully good time: Plan your trick or treat route beforehand. Only go to houses where you or your friends know the residents. Always go in groups. Don’t go without an adult. Be cautious about eating what people give you when out trick or treating. Check with an adult when you get home. Be visible, stay in areas that are well lit with streetlights where possible. Take a torch just in case. Don’t wear masks that restrict your vision. You need to see when crossing roads. Don’t enter any house when trick or treating, stay on the doorstep. Don’t knock on doors where you see a ‘No trick or treat callers’ sign. Avoid using real candles in lanterns and pumpkins. Battery operated lights are safer. Hope you all have a great Halloween!
