Please lock your windows and doors!
It's only March and already insecurity burglaries are on the increase!

Over the last week at least 5 burglaries have occurred across Salford due to people leaving vulnerable windows open and doors unlocked.
Areas affected include the student area on Seaford Road, Boothstown and Eccles.
Take a few minutes to look at your house through the eyes of a burglar..which windows are vulnerable, are they next to a drainpipe? is there a window over a flat roof. These are all ways that an opportunistic burglar will try to get into your home.
Please - take a few minutes before leaving your home or going to bed that your home is as secure as it can be!!!!!
Failure to lock windows and doors can have serious consequences for your contents insurance.
