Keep desirable items away from windows and out of sight. - When it comes to your family’s gold or large sums of money the safest storage option is to keep it away from your home in a security box or at a bank. - Otherwise keep valuable items in a concealed, lockable safe, which is secured to a strong base like a solid floor or wall to ensure it cannot be carried away. - Security mark or take photographs of your jewellery and other valuables and upload details to Immobilise so, if they are stolen and the police recover them, you stand a better chance of getting them back. - Be vigilant when wearing your jewellery, especially in busy or crowded places. If you suspect someone of handling stolen jewellery contact police on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
