With Christmas now just under a month away, it’s a good time to stop and think like Bob for a moment…
If you wanted to ruin someone’s festive cheer, what would you go for first?
What would Bob do?
Look for houses in darkness
Try doors that are left unlocked
Target parcels left on doorsteps
Peek through windows for visible gifts
Try car doors while people unload shopping
Slip through garden gates left ajar
Hunt for unregistered valuables
How to stop him:
Use timer lights when out
Lock doors & windows – even if you’re home
Keep gifts hidden from sight, Track & collect deliveries promptly
Mark & register valuables online
Secure sheds & side gates
Stay alert to suspicious behaviour
If you spot a real-life 'Bob' :
999 in an emergency
101 or online for non-emergency reports
Let’s make sure the only thing the Bob steals this year…
…is the sprouts from his cell-mates xmas -dinner
Stay safe, stay secure & protect your Christmas.
