Home Office uses new advertisements to warn Brits to keep their property safe

of the times: The new Home Office adverts will teach Brits how to avoid being a victim of crime


The public is warned not to leave themselves open to thieves and burglars in a new advertising campaign today.

Around one-third of burglaries are carried out when windows and doors have been left open.

The Home Office campaign also highlights the danger of personal theft when mobile phones and other items are on show.

The adverts encourage householders to lock doors and windows and not to leave expensive items or car keys on display.

Advertisements will appear on TV, radio, the internet and on posters.

Home Office Minister Alan Campbell said: 'Simple things like locking your doors and windows when you're out, not leaving valuables on display or just making sure your bag isn't hanging open on the bus will keep the criminals out.'


Valuables: the ads warn people to ensure their property is kept safe, at home and on the streets
